Wind Nowcast
This wind animation was created from the latest LMHOFS nowcast for the Mackinac Straits. The hourly fields were created by spatially and temporally interpolating the wind products from the latest run of the National Weather Service's 3-km hourly updated High-Resolution Rapid Refresh (HRRR) atmospheric model. These interpolated wind fields were used by LMHOFS to generate oceanographic nowcasts.
