How the models did here
Each model's wave height against this buoy's measurements, matched hour by hour over the selected window (up to 92 days back). Open-Meteo's past values are stitched from its most recent short-range forecasts, so this scores roughly day-one skill, not a 5-day forecast. Buoys close inshore usually read lower than the open-ocean models.
