Figure 6A-4 is a map of a portion of the North Atlantic Ocean showing in greater detail significant wave heights and wave directions valid for 18Z on 13 February 2020 (the same time as the Figure 6A-3 map). Note the wave pattern centered at about 50°N, 35°W. The orange and red areas generally surrounding the center of this wave pattern indicate significant wave heights which are relatively compared to those in surrounding waters. a. low b. high Significant Wave Height with Wave Direction Valid For Feb-13-2020 18:00 GMT 70 N 60 N 50 N 40 N 70 W 60 W 50 W 40 W 30 W 20 W 10 W 10 E 20 E 30 E oceanweather inc.
