spray
28-33 7 13,9-17,1 50-61
Near Gale Sea heaps up and
white foam from breaking
waves begins to be blown
in streaks along the direction
of the wind
34-40 8 17,2-20,7 62-74
Gale Moderately high waves
of greater length; edges
of crests begin to break
into spindrift. The foam

streaks along the direction
of the wind
41-47 9 20,8-24,4 75-88
Severe Gale High waves.
Dense streaks of foam along
the direction of the wind.
Crests of waves begin to
topple, tumble and roll
over. Spray may affect visibility
48-55 10 24,5-28,4 89-102
Storm Very high waves with
long over-hanging crests.
The resulting foam, in great
patches, is blown in dense
white streaks along the
direction of the wind. On
the whole the surface of
the sea takes on a white
appearance. The 'tumbling'
of the sea becomes heavy
and shock-like. Visibility
affected
56-63 11 28,5-32,6 103-117
Violent Storm Exceptionally
high waves (small and medium-size
ships might be for
a time lEast to view behind
the waves). The sea is completely
covered with long white
patches of foam lying along
the direction of the wind.
Everywhere the edges of
the wave crests are blown
into froth. Visibility affected
64-71 12 32,7-36,9 118-133
Hurricane The air is filled
with foam and spray. Sea
completely white with driving
spray; visibility very seriously
affected
