INTRODUCTION
Ships....The U.S. Voluntary Observing Ship (VOS) program needs your
help! If your ship is not participating in this worthwhile international
program, we urge you to join. Remember, the meteorological agencies
that do the weather forecasting cannot help you without input from you.
ONLY YOU KNOW THE WEATHER AT YOUR POSITION!!
Please report the weather at 0000, 0600, 1200, and 1800 UTC as
explained in the National Weather Service Observing Handbook No. 1
for Marine Surface Weather Observations.
Within 300 nm of a named hurricane, typhoon or tropical storm, or within
200 nm of U.S. or Canadian waters, also report the weather at 0300,
0900, 1500, and 2100 UTC. Your participation is greatly appreciated by
all mariners.
For assistance, contact a Port Meteorological Officer (PMO), who will
come aboard your vessel and provide all the information you need to
observe, code and transmit weather observations.
This publication is made available via the Internet at:

ABOUT THIS PUBLICATION
The schedules contained in this publication were obtained from official and
unofficial sources. The information herein may neither be complete or accurate.
Wherever possible, the schedules are dated with the latest change available.
The National Weather Service would like to thank everyone who provided
assistance.
For ease of use, all stations are listed by WMO region, in alphabetical order, by
country and location. All times listed herein are Universal Coordinated Time
(UTC), unless otherwise indicated.
Unless otherwise stated, assigned frequencies are shown, for carrier frequency
subtract 1.9 kHz. Typically dedicated radiofax receivers use assigned
frequencies, while receivers or transceivers, connected to external recorders or
PC's, are operated in the upper sideband (USB) mode using carrier
frequencies.
For information on weather broadcasts worldwide, also refer to NGA Publication
117, the Canadian Coast Guard Radio Aids to Navigation (Canada Only) and
the British Admiralty List of Signals, which are updated through Notices to
Mariners. Information on these and other marine weather publications may be
found in Appendix D. These publications are HIGHLY recommended.
This document also includes information on how to obtain National Weather
Service text forecasts, graphic forecasts, and marine observations via the
Internet and e-mail (FTPMAIL). Mariners are highly encouraged to explore
these options.
This PDF file contains links to http pages and FTPMAIL commands. The links
may not be compatible with all PDF readers and e-mail systems. The Internet is
not part of the National Weather Service's operational data stream and should
never be relied upon as a means to obtain the latest forecast and warning data.

Body: help
This National Weather Service (NWS) FTPMAIL server is intended to
allow Internet access for users who do not have direct access to
the World Wide Web but who are equipped with an e-mail system.
The service is free and no signup is required. Using FTPMAIL, users can request
files from NWS and have them automatically e-mailed back to them. Turnaround is
generally less than one hour, however, performance may vary widely and the NWS
cannot guarantee receipt.
Although these instructions are tailored for marine users to gainaccess to
graphic (radiofax) and text products via e-mail, all publicly available data on
the [email protected] Internet FTP server is accessible using the FTPMAIL
service.
To begin using the FTPMAIL service, the user sends a small script file via
e-mail requesting the desired file(s). A list of available product directories
and file names can be seen by clicking the link below.
https://tgftp.nws.noaa.gov/fax/
A listing of all available product descriptions, file names, times the product
is available and issuing center can be viewed at the link below. It will help
you determine which products you want/need to receive using FTPMAIL.
https://tgftp.nws.noaa.gov/fax/Amaster_index.html
*ENSURING YOUR E-MAIL IS IN THE PROPER FORMAT*
FTPMAIL e-mail requests must be sent in ASCII/Plain Text only.
HTML formatting will likely result in no response from the FTPMAIL
server.
An FAQ webpage describing several public and commercial FTP-to-EMAIL
and WWW-to-EMAIL servers may be found at:
www.faqs.org/faqs/internet-services/access-via-email/
Users should be familiar with sending and receiving messages and
attachments with their particular e-mail system. Attachments are
received in UUencoded form. The majority of modern e-mail systems
handle the conversion automatically, other users will need to run
the UUdecode program for their particular system. If your e-mail
system does not UUENCODE automatically, you will get back a bunch
of gibberish starting with something like "begin 600 PWAE98.TIF"
See your system administrator if you have any questions on this
topic. UUdecode freeware and shareware may also be found on the Web,
but the easier solution is to try a different e-mail system if that
option is open to you. The UUencoding process can add 0 to >100%
overhead depending on your system and the type of file.
Files which are greater than approximately 400KB in length may be
sent as multiple e-mails which must then be appended to another and
UUdecoded. This can be avoided using the "size" command following
the "open" statement, e.g. "size 1000000." The maximum allowable is 2MB.
Files sizes for NWS radiofax graphic files average 35KB but can be
much greater especially some satellite images which can approach 1MB.
Use the "dir" command to ascertain the size of files of interest
as a precaution. Users should be aware of the costs for operating
their particular e-mail system before attempting to use FTPMAIL,
especially when using satellite communication systems. For marine
users, using FTPMAIL via INMARSAT-C for obtaining current NWS
radiofax graphic files is cost prohibitive. Using the FTPMAIL
compression feature of FTPMAIL is not recommended as these files
are already in a compressed T4(G4) format enveloped in TIFF for
viewing. You will need a graphics program capable of displaying
files in this format in order to view them. Suggestions for TIFF
viewers may be found in file https://tgftp.nws.noaa.gov/fax/rfaxtif.txt
Make certain you have not enabled any auto-reply function in your email
system.
If you see the following response and believe your script to be correct,
the most likely problem is that you are sending your e-mail in HTML
format rather than the required plain text format.
<FTP EMAIL> response
ftpmail has failed to queue your request with an error of:
Must have an 'open [site [user [pass]]]'
If you restrict incoming e-mail as a means of preventing spam, you
must program your e-mail system to allow messages from:
The majority of error messages have been disabled. You may not receive
an error message back from FTPMAIL if your script is in error.
FTPMAIL problems are occasionally encountered when embedded control
characters are received within the e-mail message received by the
FTPMAIL server. These control characters may be introduced by the
user's e-mail system and may be unavoidable.
Also be certain that each of your commands does not have any leading
and/or trailing space(s) or you may see an error message with a number
of statements saying "=20"
Problems may also be encountered in trying to go down several levels
of directories simultaneously, e.g. "cd data/forecasts/marine/test".
Use a series of commands "cd data", "cd forecasts", "cd marine" instead.
In both these instances, the likely error will be "Directory not Found"
If the FTPMAIL server is too busy, you will receive an e-mail with a
subject line similar to: "ftpmail job queuing for retry queue/097095.69568"
Your request will be resubmitted automatically and your requested
file(s) should be received within several hours.

Marine Forecasts and Related Information Available via E-mail
National Weather Service (and other) marine forecasts are available via
a variety of Government, University, Commercial and Public/Freeware
systems intended to make information accessible to users such as mariners
who may have an e-mail capability but do not have direct Internet access.
The following is a listing of several known automated systems.
Note: Any reference to any product or service does not imply any
endorsement by the National Weather Service as to function or suitability
for your purpose or environment.

**** IMPORTANT NOTICES ****
Effective September 07, 2016, the address of the FTPMAIL service changed
If you restrict incoming e-mail as a means of preventing spam, you must
Read the help file carefully - 99% of errors using FTPMAIL are simple
typo's, incorrect capitalization, failure to send in plain text format,
leading or trailing spaces, or failure to set up any spam filters properly.
These instructions are subject to revision....download frequently.
National Weather Service marine text forecasts and radiofax charts are
available via e-mail via an FTPMAIL server. Further, FTPMAIL may be used
to acquire any file on the tgftp.nws.noaa.gov FTP server. The FTPMAIL server
is intended to allow Internet access for mariners and other users who do not
have direct access to the World Wide Web but who are equipped with an e-mail
system. Turnaround is generally less than one hour, however, performance
may vary widely and receipt cannot be guaranteed. To get started in using the
NWS FTPMAIL service, follow these simple directions to obtain the FTPMAIL
"help" file (11 KBytes), or see https://tgftp.nws.noaa.gov/fax/ftpmail.txt

Channel numbers, e.g. (WX1, WX2) etc. have no special significance but are often designated this way in
consumer equipment. Other channel numbering schemes are also prevalent.
The NOAA Weather Radio network provides voice broadcasts of local and coastal marine forecasts on a
continuous cycle. The forecasts are produced by local National Weather Service Forecast Offices.
Coastal stations also broadcast predicted tides and real time observations from buoys and coastal
meteorological stations operated by NOAA's National Data Buoy Center. Based on user demand, and
where feasible, Offshore and Open Lake forecasts are broadcast as well.
The NOAA Weather Radio network provides near continuous coverage of the coastal U.S, Great Lakes,
Hawaii, and populated Alaska coastline. Typical coverage is 25 nautical miles offshore, but may extend
much further in certain areas.
