About this portal
This portal collects public environmental data for Thorndyke Bay (Hood Canal, Jefferson County, WA) to help oyster growers plan day-to-day work: tide windows, heat exposure at low tide, rain, wind, water conditions, and shellfish status. Data updates automatically about every 20 minutes.
Coming next: on-site weather and water sensors at farm sites, UW LiveOcean water-column forecasts, and text/email alerts.
Advisory only. Official shellfish harvest closures come from the WA Department of Health. Tide predictions and forecasts can be wrong. Use your own judgment on the beach.
