      There are 3 weather buoys which appear in NW of Spain, on the land ! (From time to time for some of them)
      Obviously this is due to a wrong location.
      These buoys are:
      BATFR21
      BATFR66
      61001

      BATFR21 and BATFR66 disappear from time to time probably because they don’t send data regularly.

      This issue type has already been discussed :

      Sometime drifting buoys drift to strange places ...

            Yes you are right.
            Checking DBEB, I found 2 more:
            DBEA
            DBBA

            Mmh... Ireland is also a good land for cropping weather buoys !

                I’ve not tried to find the right coordinates as I did for some other ghost buoys. But it’s obviously a problem of wrong coordinates in Windy and need some cleaning.

                  There is a fourth weather buoy in Spain, on the east side. I had seen it few days ago, but then it disappeared and come back now:
                  BATFR46

                  AAF7816E-7319-4915-B362-9D76246727E3.jpeg

                  So the « hunting board » is
                  BATFR21
                  BATFR66
                  BATFR46
                  61001
                  DBEB
                  DBEA
                  DBBA

                    Would it be possible to add wave height and maximum wave height to the buoy data?
