MHL and what can we do about wave rider buoys?
To start with we should pick on Don.
From the Realsurf front page the MHL link still goes to:
http://new.mhl.nsw.gov.au/data/realtime ... tra-sydney
This shows the old style wave rose and it is dated 21 August 2015.
Don Norris or someone maintaining the site should update the link to:
http://new.mhl.nsw.gov.au/data/realtime ... uoy-syddow
Which at the moment is correctly showing swell as:
9am 6 Mar17 4.2 m @ 11.1 secs from 160 deg (sweet!).
Questions:
1. Are there other wave rider buoys in Australia other than these NSW ones?
2. What can we do to let MHL know that we use this service and value it?
3. Why doesn't wave forecast data merge with actual figures (anywhere?)?
If you need some background see:

I still don't buy the "official" narrative about 9/11. Oh sure, it happened, fcuk yeah. But who and why and how I'm, not convinced it was what we've been told.

Re: MHL and what can we do about wave rider buoys?
There are or have been some issues with the MHL site.
A couple of years ago they changed their links around somehow and you couldn't access correct information. Then, for ages I also got a message questioning the authenticity of the site. That seems to have been fixed relatively recently.
But for Queenslanders, MHL is great to track the swell up the NSW coast.

Thanks for that, I had not seen this.Trev wrote:There's a bunch of them in Queensland, too.

I found one Victorian buoy here:

I do prefer a wave rose to a graph and to a live cam. Live cams you have to watch for 20-30 mins to see what is happening.

Re: MHL and what can we do about wave rider buoys?
makemake, do you like little buoys, or big buoys?
Re: MHL and what can we do about wave rider buoys?

Re: MHL and what can we do about wave rider buoys?
I came here today to bitch about how slow the MHL buoys have been this week.
Just checked the page:
http://new.mhl.nsw.gov.au/data/realtime ... uoy-syddow
..and it was up to date.
Does anyone know what the problem was?
I get the impression that someone is vetting it.
Why can't the data just be live?

Because the data link from the buoy to onshore processing is shit.
