Sea and waves

Hourly wind

Sea state

The wave model doesn't reach Klukwan: it's on inland water (an estuary, sound or sheltered bay) or far from the open sea. Wind is still available right here.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 3 mph NNE · gusts 13

The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.

Offshore wind. The coast faces south and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: high
  • 1:49–3:49 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:21–4:21 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 12:42–1:42 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 4:55–5:55 pm Minor · moonrise · medium activity

According to solunar theory, fish feed more when the moon passes overhead or underfoot (major periods, about 2 h) and when it rises or sets (minor periods, 1 h). It works best around new and full moon.
