Period Summary

Hog Says

1,477 wave-buoy observations covered all 31 days. Typical wave height was 4.4 ft (10th–90th percentile 2.2–10.1 ft), while mean average wave period was 4.9 seconds (10th–90th percentile 3.4–6.3 seconds). 5 of 4,431 checked values (0.1%) were excluded by quality control. Across 12 comparable years, mean wave height was above the same-month mean of 5 ft and mean wave period was the same as the same-month mean of 4.9 seconds.

About Nymindegab wave buoy

Nymindegab is a Danish Coastal Authority directional buoy in the North Sea off the southern part of Jutland's exposed west coast. The station supports long-term understanding and management of the sandy barrier coast around the southern end of Ringkøbing Fjord and the Lodbjerg–Nymindegab protection area.

Its current data source reports wave height, wave period and wave direction.
