Period Summary

Programmatically generated summary. Hog Says

48 wave-buoy observations were recorded during the day. Typical wave height was 9 ft (10th–90th percentile 8.5–9.5 ft), while mean peak wave period was 9.5 seconds (10th–90th percentile 8.7–10.1 seconds). Typical calculated wave power was approximately 28 kW/m (10th–90th percentile 23.4–33.1 kW/m), derived from significant wave height and energy period. All 144 checked values passed quality control.
