Seneca Lake boating/marine forecast info?


Recommended Posts

Does anyone have a link to a boating forecast or weather station for Seneca? I searched NOAA, but couldn't find a marine forecast, just the typical weather info.

I live near Buffalo and would hate to make the drive to find out it is too rough to fish.

I assumed there would be a weather buoy or station on the lake given the Navy has a facility on the lake, but I can't find anything on the web.

Anyone have a link?

Thanks.

Don't think you'll find current forecast. If you worried about waves and can't find it, just look at wind forecasts. If it is an east or west wind less than 15-18 mph you will be fine especially if you fish on the side of the lake that the wind is coming from. If it is a north or south less than 10 you will be fine. Either of these winds will be less than 1 foot wave heights. Seneca usually does have some decent current and some of the guys on here should be able to tell you if it runs clockwise or counterclockwise. I cant remember.

Thanks Stoutner. That will help me out when trying to determine if I should make the drive out.
