Data coverage
Marine surface weather observations for 32 parameters from 69 locations across the Met Office marine observation network. Observations are available for a rolling 7-day period (168 hours). The data is available as CSV files. The data comes from moored buoys, light vessels and ships with automatic weather stations onboard. Buoys and light vessels are static and you can view their locations on the Met Office Marine Observations page. You can use the data to monitor the latest weather affecting a specific marine location so you can plan for your business or operations.
