Fall Walleye Conditions, Every Lake Erie Port at a Glance

How to read it: Ohio, Michigan, and Pennsylvania cities pull from their nearest NOAA buoy, and neighboring cities share one, so the label under each name says which. The New York shore has no buoy, so those rows come from the NWS Buffalo forecast and are marked with an asterisk.

Live readings from NOAA National Data Buoy Center stations, refreshed every 15 minutes. "--" means the station is not reporting that value. NOAA's nearshore buoys are deployed seasonally, so some stations read offline late in the year. The per-port conditions pages carry the marine forecast year round. * Wind from the NWS forecast for that port when the buoy's own wind sensor is not reporting; the ride rating then uses the forecast's upper wind speed. New York cities have no NOAA buoy: their water temperature and waves come from the NWS Buffalo nearshore marine forecast (the water temperature off Buffalo and the zone's forecast wave height), and their wind from each city's NWS point forecast, all marked with an asterisk.
