WRI offers Tropical Surveillance to our CURRENT CLIENTS of yachts or chartering parties. During tropical season, you will be kept well informed of all tropical features through WRI produced Tropical Summaries. These summaries are produced at least once per day (more often if significant changes occur) and are automatically emailed to clients who are currently receiving our services, or a present SeaWeather subscriber.

SeaWeather is our latest supplemental online weather service located at http://www.seaweather.net. Captains in certain locations, are finding this website to be a useful guide, in order to view a wide variety of different weather maps. There are three packages offered in SeaWeather: Lite, Basic, and Premium. By clicking the "Sign up now" link on the left hand side of the home page, you will be able to view the "tools", and price offered in each package. Please note that Basic and Premium subscribers are eligible to receive daily Tropical Summaries for the length of their subscription, or when the Tropical Season begins.

In addition, should a system or disturbance threaten your general area within 5 days, WRI's Tropical Alert System will notify the affected parties with a specific warning, via email. WRI is often 24-36 hours ahead of governmental organizations in finding, naming, and tracking tropical systems. To receive caution alerts 5 days in advance, and then warnings 3 days in advance, is very beneficial for planning purposes. It could be the difference between a safe harbor, or a devastating loss. WRI does not play politics as many governmental organizations do when naming and tracking systems. You will know exactly what our forecasters are thinking and forecast with no bias.

Tropical Surveillance clients are required to have a valid email address. All vessels on Tropical Surveillance are strongly encouraged to advise any change to vessel locations. This prevents our threat detection system from sending out false warnings to vessels that are not threatened.

At any time, if you need a more specific forecast or routing advice, you may request a verbal or written forecast. Our normal forecast charges will apply.
