What NOAA buoy 45197 measures
As a NOAA meteorological station, 45197 reports wind speed, gusts and direction, barometric pressure, air and water temperature, and — where wave sensors are fitted — significant wave height, swell period, and wave direction.
What to watch in Lake Erie
Lake Erie is the shallowest Great Lake, which makes it the fastest to turn dangerous: northwesterly winds can stack steep 4–6 ft seas in the western basin within hours, and wind-driven seiches shift water levels several feet end to end. Watch wind speed and direction closely and check the buoy in your basin.
Frequently asked questions
- What is the water temperature at Euclid?
- Sea surface temperature at Euclid was 64°F. Measured October 19, 2026 at 19:00 UTC by NOAA station 45197 (Euclid, OH). NDBC measures this near the surface, at a depth that varies by station.
- What is the air temperature at Euclid?
- Air temperature at Euclid was 63°F. Measured October 19, 2026 at 19:00 UTC by NOAA station 45197 (Euclid, OH).
- What is the wind doing at Euclid?
- Wind at Euclid was from the NW at 4 mph, with peak gusts to 7 mph. Measured October 19, 2026 at 19:00 UTC by NOAA station 45197 (Euclid, OH). NDBC records wind at the station’s anemometer height, which is not the 10 m height used in marine forecasts.
- How big are the waves at Euclid?
- Significant wave height at Euclid was 0.7 ft. Measured October 19, 2026 at 19:00 UTC by NOAA station 45197 (Euclid, OH). Significant wave height is the average of the highest one-third of waves — individual waves can be larger.
- Which direction are the waves coming from at Euclid?
- Waves at Euclid were arriving from 278° true (W) at the dominant period. Measured October 19, 2026 at 19:00 UTC by NOAA station 45197 (Euclid, OH).
- What is the barometric pressure at Euclid?
- Sea-level pressure at Euclid was 30.34 inHg (1027.3 hPa). Measured October 19, 2026 at 19:00 UTC by NOAA station 45197 (Euclid, OH). NDBC reports pressure reduced to sea level rather than the raw reading at the station.
- Where is NOAA buoy 45197 located?
- Euclid, OH (45197) reports from 41.619°N, 81.617°W in Lake Erie (Ohio).
- How often is NOAA buoy 45197 updated?
- Station 45197 typically reports new observations about every 10 minutes. Big Buoy refreshes continuously so you always see the latest readings, alongside a solunar table for the area.
- What does NOAA buoy 45197 measure?
- Big Buoy shows wind, barometric pressure, air and water temperature, and wave height and period where available for Euclid, OH, plus solunar peak windows and a multi-day weather outlook.
- Is Big Buoy free to use?
- Yes. Live data for Euclid, OH and every other NOAA buoy is free with no account required. Big Buoy Pro adds the Wind Tab, the Depth Chart, satellite overlays (sea surface temp, chlorophyll, currents), 16-day forecasts, and forecast model switching.
