      Hey
      We are currently extremely depending on waves on our job. We have a limit on 1,5 meters significant.
      The values shown in the app or webpage is it maximum, average or significant waves?

        Significant wave height
        i.e. the mean wave height (trough to crest) of the highest third of the waves.

            I think you have to change the definition, here:
            https://community.windy.com/topic/3361/description-of-weather-overlays/1

            Is significant wave height, not mean wave height.

              Confirm that "Waves" mean Significant wave height. Description corrected.
