Changes to NSW marine forecasts
Wind warnings now included in forecastsThe Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) has announced that changes have been made to the structure of marine forecasts.
Marine wind warnings will now be incorporated within the Coastal Waters Forecasts and not listed separately. The warnings cover the first two days of the forecast period and specify which day is affected.
The wind warning will be added as a label above the wind and wave forecasts for the affected days within the Coastal Waters Forecast. During wind warning periods, the Coastal Waters Forecast will be issued every six hours.
A wind warning summary will be published on the Bureau’s warning pages during warning periods. The summary will provide a succinct overview of all zones affected by wind warnings for the current and following days.
