I don't know if anyone else has noticed but for the last few days (weeks?) there has been an automatic weather buoy [AMOUK42] parked in Southampton. It's transmitting hourly SYNOP, here's the 1500 UTC one:

BBXX AMOUK42 1315/ 99509 70014 46/// ///// 10133 20078 40305=

I can only assume its in for a service and tied up at one of the quays.


Ah, so that's what they are. I've noticed their data from time to time
on the WeatherObs site with their location at Leith
