Topic: Wave/Surf/Tide Info for Coastal Sites

[anvana]

I discovered a great FREE application that places surf conditions on your website. This would be used mostly for coastal weather websites. The application generates a Flash object that displays on the user's page. the display includes wave heights, swell, water temp, tides, and more. Simple cut-n-paste installation. The display also includes a small ad at the bottom of the object window.

Data is selectable from world-wide locations and is not limited to the US coast.

For an example, have a look at www.topsailweather.com/index.php. The example is shown below the forecast.

Pick this up at www.wavewatch.com

Topsail linky thingy works better without the period at the end.

Sorry. the links should be www.topsailweather.com

That period-at-the-end-included-in-URL is a 'feature' of the phpBB software when it makes auto-links out of things that look like web addresses.

Note to self: always remember to put a space following an URL at the end of the sentence before placing the period.
