Many National Weather Service forecast offices offer recorded marine and local forecasts as found on NOAA Weather radio. Here is a listing of telephone numbers for recorded forecasts from NWS offices. The table below may provide more information if you can not find a certain number.
The National Data Buoy Center offers a Dial-A-Buoy service. Mariners can hear the latest coastal and offshore weather observations using Dial-A-Buoy. Dial-A-Buoy also can read the latest NWS marine forecast, by zone, for most station locations. Dial-A-Buoy provides wind and wave measurements taken within the last hour at 65 buoy and 54 Coastal-Marine Automated Network (C-MAN) stations. The stations are located in the Atlantic, Pacific, Gulf of Mexico, and the Great Lakes and are operated by the National Data Buoy Center (NDBC). NDBC, a part of the National Weather Service (NWS), created Dial-A-Buoy to give mariners an easy way to obtain the reports via a cellular or satellite telephone.
The Physical Oceanographic Real-TimeSystem (PORTS®) offers toll-free numbers to obtain the latest water level, meteorological and temperature data for 18 different port areas.
