Yeah very interesting thanks WM. They could do with another buoy between K5 and M4 I would have thought.

Thanks for your comments

I agree with you Cat 5 we could do with some more in the north west.

Perhaps this link needs adding as it allows you to click the link to see what each of the sites is currently reporting,from the UK Met O collection.

Thanks for that link WM and also to others for further links. Unfortunately the nearest buoy to me, M1, hasn't reported for almost a year. Very frustrating
