Marblehead Ohio Marine Forecast And NOAA Station 9063079
NOAA CO-OPS station 9063079 is the non-tidal Marblehead water-level and weather station, also presented by NDBC as MRHO1. Use its time-stamped observations beside the changing NWS Cleveland marine forecast for LEZ144; do not turn the station into a wave buoy or its Great Lakes water level into an astronomical tide prediction.
- Official station reference
- NOAA CO-OPS station 9063079 at Marblehead, Ohio; NDBC presents the same station as MRHO1.
- Observation role
- The official inventory lists wind, air temperature, water temperature, barometric pressure, relative humidity and water level.
- Forecast role
- NWS Cleveland issues the changing Lake Erie nearshore forecast and warnings; LEZ144 covers The Islands to Vermilion, Ohio.
- Non-tidal boundary
- NOAA marks 9063079 non-tidal and publishes a Great Lakes Low Water Datum, not astronomical high- and low-tide predictions.
- Wave boundary
- MRHO1 is a water-level observation station, not a wave buoy; use the official NWS forecast for wave guidance.

Start With The Exact Marblehead Source
NOAA identifies 9063079 as the Marblehead station at 41.54364, -82.73139 and marks it non-tidal. NDBC uses MRHO1 for its presentation of the same NOAA/NOS station. Check the identifier and timestamp before treating any observation as current.
Keep that station check inside the larger guide to how weather and water data shape fishing conditions.
Use 9063079 And MRHO1 For Observations
The current NOAA sensor inventory lists wind, air temperature, water temperature, barometric pressure, relative humidity and water level. These are measurements from a specific instrument location and time. They are not a site-specific marine forecast, and an old observation must not be labeled current.
Use NWS Cleveland For The Marine Forecast
NWS Cleveland publishes Lake Erie marine forecasts and hazard messages. Its nearshore forecast groups LEZ142 through LEZ144 and identifies LEZ144 as The Islands to Vermilion, Ohio. Reopen the official forecast before departure because wind, waves, warnings and timing change.
Keep Water Level Separate From Astronomical Tide
Station metadata classifies 9063079 as non-tidal, while the datum inventory publishes Great Lakes Low Water Datum as a height reference. The station can measure changing Lake Erie water levels without producing a coastal high-tide or low-tide table. A datum is also not water depth or navigation clearance.
Do Not Turn MRHO1 Into A Wave Buoy
The NDBC station page identifies MRHO1 as the Marblehead Water Level Observation Network station maintained by NOAA NOS. Its standard table can display wind, pressure and water temperature when reported, but wave-height fields are not a Marblehead observation product. Use NWS Cleveland for forecast wave guidance.
Read TideCue Combined Conditions By Provider
TideCue can combine nearby sources around a saved water. The live card may therefore show a separate tide reference, model wave estimate or other nearby station alongside MRHO1. Those supporting inputs do not change the identity or capabilities of NOAA station 9063079; use the visible provider labels before attributing a value.
Match The Source To The Exact Trip
Pair time-stamped Marblehead observations with the newest NWS forecast, active warnings, shoreline exposure, access and the return route. One station does not describe every island, harbor, offshore reach or protected shore in western Lake Erie, and no favorable reading guarantees fishing success or safe passage.
Recheck Wind And Marine Hazards Before Departure
Wind direction, gusts, fetch and the latest wave forecast can change the exposure at the exact water. Check the observation time and the NWS issuance time again before leaving, and treat official warnings and uncertain access as reasons to wait.
Use this wind-speed planning for fishing framework for that final comparison.
Common questions
Does Marblehead station 9063079 provide a wave forecast?
No. Station 9063079 provides water-level and meteorological observations. NWS Cleveland supplies the official changing Lake Erie wind, wave and hazard forecast.
Are MRHO1 and NOAA CO-OPS 9063079 the same station?
Yes. NDBC identifies MRHO1 as 9063079 Marblehead, Ohio, a Water Level Observation Network station owned and maintained by NOAA NOS.
Does Marblehead have NOAA astronomical tide predictions?
NOAA marks station 9063079 non-tidal. It reports Great Lakes water-level observations and a Great Lakes height datum rather than a coastal astronomical high- and low-tide prediction table.
What does the Marblehead station observe?
The current official sensor inventory lists wind, air temperature, water temperature, barometric pressure, relative humidity and water level. Check the official station page for current availability and timestamps.
Which NWS forecast zone provides Marblehead context?
NWS Cleveland identifies LEZ144 as The Islands to Vermilion, Ohio. Use the latest official zone forecast and warnings rather than copying a forecast value into a static guide.
