Seasonal ice coverage on the Great Lakes has been on a downward trend over the years, according to NOAA research. During the winter season, average ice cover on the lakes has declined by about 70 ...
Several communities across the Great Lakes region are preparing to be blasted by feet of snow as winter weather moves in just as millions of people across the U.S. ring in 2025.
Weather Buoy / Data Buoy / Oceanographic Buoy operated by the Marine Data Service. The first known proposal for surface weather observations at sea occurred in connection with aviation in August 1927, when Grover Loening stated that "weather stations along the ocean coupled with the development of the seaplane to have an equally long range, would result in regular ocean flights within ten years."
A new outbreak of cold air will trigger bands of heavy, disruptive lake-effect snow during the first half of the new week, AccuWeather meteorologists warn. "Typically, lake-effect snow events ...
In addition, all buoy stations, and some C-MAN stations, measure sea surface temperature and wave height and period. Conductivity and water current are measured at selected stations. A new task is the operation of the DART (Deep-ocean Assessment and Reporting of Tsunamis) buoys. DART is a fleet of tsunami detecting buoys.
Typical November Witch weather pattern. November gale, the Witch of November, or November Witch, refers to the strong winds that frequently blow across the Great Lakes in autumn. The "witches" are caused by intense low atmospheric pressure over the Great Lakes pulling cold Canadian/Arctic air from the north or northwest and warm Gulf air from ...
The U.S. National Ice Center released its 2024-2025 seasonal outlook, predicting slightly below to near normal ice conditions across the Great Lakes — a turnaround from last season’s record ...
The Coastal-Marine Automated Network (C-MAN) is a meteorological observation network along the coastal United States. Consisting of about sixty stations installed on lighthouses, at capes and beaches, on near shore islands, and on offshore platforms, the stations record atmospheric pressure, wind direction, speed and gust, and air temperature; however, some C-MAN stations are designed to also ...
