Forecast wave indication Colors can be used to indicate forecast wave height. The highest waves are dark red, while the lowest are blue. You can define how the color codes are used to identify the wave height. Refer to "Adjusting color codes" on page 165. Forecast wind barbs Forecast wind barbs can be shown or hidden on the weather panel. Wind barbs The rotation of the wind barbs indicate the relative wind direction, with the tail showing the direction the wind is coming from. In the graphics below, the wind comes from the northwest. Wind speed is indicated by a combination of small and large barbs at the end of the wind tail. Zero knots / Indeterminate wind direction Small barb = 5 knots Large barb = 10 knots Arrow barb = 50 knots If a combination of 5 and 10 knot barbs are shown on a tail, then add them together to give you the total wind speed. The example below shows 3 x large barb + 1 x small barb = 35 knots, and 60 knots indicated with 1 x arrow barb + 1 x large barb. Wind speed: 35 knots Wind speed: 60 knots Weather icons Several weather icons are available to show current or predicted weather conditions. SiriusXM weather| HDS Live Operator Manual 163
