NTSLF , tidal surge predictor, outages
 

eg what should be here for Portsmouth
http://www.ntslf.org/storm-surges/la...ort=Portsmouth
As the bathymetric part of the model processed at the NOC, Southampton
is pretty fixed, then relevant to a weather thread, as the main initial
conditions feed must be the meteorology.
Does anyone know if the NOC or EA has to pay the MetO for a feed of
data, or whether a free Metar/Taf feed?
Then if someone fails to pay the bill or quibbles , then the NTSLF surge
predictor craps out, 2 or 3 times a year.
The National tide-gauge sytem also craps out at times, but only for one
tide cycle or so, not for days on end. With all the xmas nonsense , the
NTSLF is likely to be out for a week or more. At least very low
astronimic tides for this period of the end of December.

I imagine Canvey Islanders and others in the Thames Estuary, including
the Thames barrage operators would like to know what they have in store
for 26 Dec with all that wind blowing in the top of the North Sea.
do the Dutch have a surge predictor system , with public outputs?

Works for me, though you'll have to get Google to translate it.

Very small tides at the moment.

Works for me too, using Chrome. I wonder if Nick's browser could be
objecting to the page name ending with a hyphen? (Though if so then the
error message is seriously misleading.)

Same zero connect going via proxy + decrapifying site

other https sites run through there fine but not that URL, get this back

Those headings suggest just realtime tide-gauge monitoring + harmonic
tide prediction.
Assuming I can access that site on a different connection,
Does it give predictions of residual over astronomic ?
What sort of leadtime ?

Very true , but if you look in the BODC archives for the Sheerness
tidegauge. It is very easy to get 2 or 3m surges there (from the
shelving of the Dogger etc), so whatever the general astronomic
neap/spring situation is, the surge can well overtop it .
I'm only familiar with wind and surges in the English Channel and the
approaches, not the North Sea. I don't know whether all the wind stress
on the east side of the North Sea 26 Dec , circulates the resultant
surge around the south of the North Sea, along Holland and Belgium
coasts and into to the Thames area. The west going surge in the channel
is not so significant because its sort of anti-shelving, anti-funelling
in the Channel.
