What really caught my eye was the Sea State detail, "Rough or very
rough, becoming high or very high, occasionally phenomenal later." I
can only imagine what "phenomenal" means. Like you said, "pity the poor
fishermen".
http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/marine/guide/glossary.html has
Sea state
Smooth Wave height less than 0.5 m
Slight Wave height of 0.5 to 1.25 m
Moderate Wave height of 1.25 to 2.5 m
Rough Wave height of 2.5 to 4.0 m
Very rough Wave height of 4.0 to 6.0 m
High Wave height of 6.0 to 9.0 m
Very high Wave height of 9.0 to 14.0 m
Phenomenal Wave height more than 14.0 m
Anyone for a canoe trip?
