Description:

"An AFOS graphical Great Lakes wave forecast has been developed for marine forecasters. The AFOS product is stored under NMCGPHGLW (Figure 1), and is generated on WSFO Cleveland's Great Lakes marine Enhancement Unit's VAX computer system by using the Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory's GLERL/Donelan Two-Dimensional Wave Prediction Model. Not only do NWS Great Lakes forecasters have a new guidance product, but they now have the opportunity to control the wind and temperature data, which the model uses as input"--Introduction.
