NOAA station KEHC, East Cameron 278B (Apache Corp), reports real-time marine conditions from 28.429°N, 92.878°W in the Gulf of Mexico. Readings refresh roughly every 10 minutes, and Big Buoy adds 7-day tide predictions, a solunar table, and a multi-day weather outlook for the area.
What NOAA buoy KEHC measures
Station KEHC does not report a full meteorological suite; Big Buoy shows the observations available at this location and pairs it with the nearest offshore buoy and a 7-day tide forecast so you still get a complete picture of the area.
What to watch in the Gulf of Mexico
The Gulf’s shallow, broad shelf means seas build and lay down quickly with the wind — short-period chop is the norm rather than long ocean swell. Summer afternoons bring fast-developing thunderstorms, so watch barometric pressure and wind trends closely before heading out.
