Abstract Status (as of 2006):
The current weather station has been in operation at HMSC since 1996. The weather instrument sensors are mounted on and under the roof of the Guin Library. The sensors are made by Davis instruments, a leading manufacturer of home quality instruments.

Up to the minute current weather conditions at HMSC are available on the HMSC web site.

Monthly summaries of weather observations are provided.

Tide predictions for Yaquina Bay are also available on the HMSC web site.
Recommendations:
It is recommended that the weather station be upgraded to use research quality sensors and that the sensor locations be changed to improve observations. It is also recommended that the observations on the web page continue to be updated with current conditions every minute.
