The drop-down list above the map allows you to select which data value is displayed adjacent to the buoy symbol.
The value displayed represents the latest recorded data, with a value in parentheses indicating this was not from the most recently received data.
If you hover the mousepointer over a buoy symbol, the left-hand frame will display a summary of the most recent data transmission.
Click on a symbol to display data for that buoy.

Active buoy (the arrow's direction shows WIND DIRECTION and its size indicates WAVE HEIGHT from the most recent transmission). Where the data are more than 6 hours old, the arrow will be displayed as an outline (rather than filled). |
| l |
Active buoy (with no valid directional data available from the most recent transmission). Where the data are more than 6 hours old, the circle will be displayed as an outline (rather than filled). |
