Terms of Service

About this site

Marine Conditions is a personal project that displays real-time weather data from Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) coastal stations and moored buoys around British Columbia. It is free to use and requires no account or registration.

Data accuracy

All weather observations are sourced from ECCC's publicly available data feeds and are displayed as-is. This site makes no guarantees about the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of the data shown. Observations can be delayed, missing, or incorrect due to sensor faults, network issues, or upstream changes at ECCC.

Do not use this site to make decisions where safety is at stake — including but not limited to marine navigation, diving, surfing, or any other activity where current and accurate conditions matter. Always consult official sources such as Environment Canada, Transport Canada, or the Canadian Coast Guard for safety-critical decisions.
