The forecast, watched for you.
Tell OceanPulse the conditions you're waiting for at a spot. It checks every new forecast and lets you know the moment they line up, so you stop refreshing and start planning.
Your conditions
Exactly the day you're waiting for
Pick any spot, then set what makes a good day there: wind speed and the directions you want it from, wave height and period, the tide, rain, cloud, air temperature, and pressure. Every condition you turn on has to hold in the same hour.
- Long enough to matter
- Ask for at least 1, 3, or 6 hours in a row, so a single good hour doesn't get you out of bed.
- On your schedule
- Choose the days of the week and the hours to watch, in the spot's own time, up to five days ahead.
- The tide, too
- Tide height comes from the nearest tide station's predictions, so a launch that needs water can wait for it.
Push or email
Told once, when it counts
Each time ECMWF publishes a new forecast, OceanPulse checks your alerts and tells you once for each day that matches. Tap the notification and Tables & Graphs opens at that spot, on the first matching hour.
- On your phone
- A push notification the moment a day lines up.
- In your inbox
- An email with a map of the spot, the matching hours, and a calendar event to add.
- Quiet when you want
- Switch an alert off for the off season and back on later, without setting it up again.
In your forecast
Every match, where you already look
Alerts show up in the forecast itself. A red bell marks the days an alert matches in Daily Summary, and the Custom Alerts row in Tables & Graphs rings the exact hours.
