Pressure-center symbols often appear near weather fronts.

Indicates a low-pressure center, which is a region of

relatively lower pressure. Moving away from a low-

pressure center results in increased pressure.

Winds flow counterclockwise around low-pressure

centers in the northern hemisphere.
Indicates a high-pressure center, which is a region

of relatively higher pressure. Moving away from a

high-pressure center results in decreased pressure.

Winds flow clockwise around high-pressure centers

in the northern hemisphere.

City forecasts appear as weather symbols. The forecast is

viewed in 12-hour increments.

The Sea Conditions chart shows information about surface

conditions, including winds, wave height, wave period, and

wave direction.

Select Weather > Sea Conditions.

Surface wind vectors appear on the Sea Conditions chart

using wind barbs that indicate the direction from which the

wind is blowing. A wind barb is a circle with a tail. The line or

flag attached to the tail of the wind barb indicates the wind

speed. A short line represents 5 knots, a long line represents

10 knots, and triangle represents 50 knots.

Wave heights for an area appear as variations in color.

Different colors indicate different wave heights 

À

, as shown

in the legend on the left of the screen 

Á

.

The wave period indicates the time (in seconds) between

successive waves. Wave period lines 

Â

 indicate areas that

have the same wave period.
Wave directions appear on the chart using red arrows 

Ã

.

The direction of each arrow pointer indicates the direction in

which a wave is moving.

Select Weather > Sea Conditions.

Select an option:
• To view forecasted sea conditions for the next 12

hours, select Next Forecast, and to view forecasts up

to 48 hours, in 12-hour increments, select Next

Forecast again.

• To view the forecasted sea conditions for the previous

12 hours, select Previous Forecast, and to view

previous forecasts, up to 48 hours ago, in 12-hour

increments, select Previous Forecast again.

The weather Fishing chart shows present water temperature,

present surface pressure conditions, and fishing forecasts.

Select Weather > Fishing.

Surface-pressure information appears as pressure isobars

and pressure centers. Isobars connect points of equal

pressure. Pressure readings can help to determine weather

and wind conditions. High-pressure areas are generally

associated with fair weather. Low-pressure areas are

generally associated with clouds and the chance of

precipitation. Isobars packed closely together show a strong

pressure gradient. Strong pressure gradients are associated

with areas of stronger winds.
Pressure units are shown in millibars (mb), inches of Mercury

(inHg), or hectopascals (hPa).
Colored shading indicates the surface temperature of the

water, as shown in the legend in the corner of the display.

You can show areas that contain optimal weather conditions

for specific species of fish.

Select Weather > Fishing > Menu > Fish Species.

Select a species of fish.

Select On.

Repeat steps 2 and 3 to show areas with optimal weather

conditions for additional species of fish.
Shaded areas indicate optimal fishing areas. If you have

selected more than one species of fish, you can select a

shaded area to view the fish species that are included in

the shaded area.
