"Frequent gusts"are typically long duration conditions (greater than 2 hours).įor a list of NWS Weather Offices by Region, refer to the following website: Small Craft Advisory for Hazardous Seas (SCAHS) - An advisory for wind speeds lower than small craft advisory criteria, yet waves or seas are potentially hazardous due to wave height, wave period, steepness, or swell direction. * Pacific - (HI, Guam, etc) - Sustained winds 25 knots or greater and seas 10 feet or greater except in Guam and the northern Mariana Islands where it is sustained winds 22 to 33 knots and/or combined seas of 10 feet or greater. A small craft advisory for rough seas may be issued for sea/wave conditions deemed locally significant, based on user needs, and should be no lower than 8 feet. * Alaska (AK) - Sustained winds or frequent gusts of 23 to 33 knots. * Western (WA.CA) - Sustained winds of 21 to 33 knots, and/or wave heights exceeding 10 feet (or wave steepness values exceeding local thresholds * Southern (GA.TX and Caribbean) - Sustained winds of 20 to 33 knots, and/or forecast seas 7 feet or greater that are expected for more than 2 hours. * Central (MN.OH) - Sustained winds or frequent gusts (on the Great Lakes) between 22 and 33 knots inclusive, and/or seas or waves greater than 4 feet.
* Eastern (ME.SC, Lake Erie, Lake Ontario) - Sustained winds or frequent gusts ranging between 25 and 33 knots (except 20 to 25 knots, lower threshold area dependent, to 33 knots for harbors, bays, etc.) and/or seas or waves 5 to 7 feet and greater, area dependent. Other considerations include the experience of the vessel operator, and the type, overall size, and sea worthiness of the vessel. Any vessel that may be adversely affected by Small Craft Advisory criteria should be considered a small craft. There is no precise definition of a small craft. A Small Craft Advisory may also be issued when sea or lake ice exists that could be hazardous to small boats. Thresholds governing the issuance of small craft advisories are specific to geographic areas. Small Craft Advisory (SCA) - An advisory issued by coastal and Great Lakes Weather Forecast Offices (WFO) for areas included in the Coastal Waters Forecast or Nearshore Marine Forecast (NSH) products.
