Pick an hour on the chart to load its forecast wind and tide, or set your own: moving the dial or a slider switches to manual. Drag the dial to turn the wind. Ring colour shows the wave height each wind direction would give at the selected point. Tap a marker or chip to select it. Launch markers sit in open water about 300 m off the piers; the teal one is the forecast tool's spot. Current directions are NOAA station NYH1928 (Pier 92). Estimates come from a simple fetch and current model, so check them against what you see on the water.
