Georgia Basin
Pressure-Slope Patterns
As found in
The Wind Came All Ways
(to order, see below)
A quest to understand the winds, waves and weather in the Georgia Basin.
The latest mariner's guide by Environment Canada, for the inner south coast waters of BC. The book introduces the
idea of pressure-slopes which can be used to determine the overall pattern of winds within the
Georgia Basin. Monitoring the changes to the Pressure-Slope direction will also help identify
the pattern. It should be noted that when the Pressure- Slope steepness values are below
.5mb (millibars) per 60nm (nautical miles) the winds will be more variable and may not always
conform to the patterns discussed in the book
