Notes
| 1 | Weather is sampled by a Davis Vantage Pro2 electronic weather station located on the northern end of the Volunteer Coastguard's Chester Bellis Marine Rescue Centre at the Kapiti Boating Club. |
| 2 | Wind speed is sampled at 5 second intervals. Averages are calculated by a low-pass filter differential with a 3 minute time constant. The response of the average to a step change input is 63% after one time constant, and 95% after five time constants. |
| 3 | Data is uploaded to the club web server every half-hour between 0400 and 1800 hrs NZDT. |
