About this buoy

Wilmette Buoy is a moored weather buoy in the Great Lakes. It reports wind speed and direction with gusts, air pressure, and air and water temperature, and — where wave sensors are fitted — significant wave height and dominant wave period. Reports arrive about hourly and are served here live from NOAA's CoastWatch ERDDAP as they land.
