Emsmet

Published 18:08 on 24 Apr 2025

We're very pleased to report that Emsmet went live on 17 April. The Harbour's newest weather station is attached to Emsworth pile (most southerly pile in the main channel). Huge thanks to Mark Allerston and James Lavery for making the project a reality, and to those that funded it: ESC, ESSC, LSC, Emsworth Marina, Friends of Chichester Harbour, Chichester Harbour Federation; to Chichester Harbour Conservancy for installing it, and to Michael Massey and Graham Simmonds for integrating it into the Harbour weather systems. I suspect that there may be the odd moment in reporting while the system settles down, but this is a fantastic resource for sailors and anyone enjoying the north of the Harbour.
