Predictions for the next 36 hours are provided by the Proudman Oceanographic Laboratory in association with
the Met Office. There are forecasts of currents, waves, sea temperature and salinity, as well as wind,
air temperature, specific humidity, sensible heat flux, cloud clover and precipitation. Find out more about POL and Met Office collaboration � Ocean-Shelf Model This POL numerical model runs daily at the Met Office predicting mean currents, sea temperature and salinity. A subsection of predictions is shown covering the Irish Sea from the sea surface down to the sea bed. Find out more about this model � View forecasts Sea Temperature | Salinity | Elevation Irish Sea Model This POL numerical model runs daily at the Met Office predicting mean currents, sea temperature and salinity. Find out more about this model � View forecasts Mean Currents | Sea Temperature | Salinity | Point Profiles Wave Model This numerical model runs twice daily at the Met Office predicting wind and swell waves. A subsection is shown covering the Irish Sea.

A subsection is shown covering the Irish Sea. Find out more about this model � View forecasts Air Temperature | Wind vectors | Specific Humidity Sensible Heat Flux | Cloud Cover | Precipitation POLCOMS POLCOMS is the Proudman Oceanographic Laboratory Coastal Ocean Modelling System. It comprises a baroclinic three-dimensional model with the ability to run in regions which include both the deep ocean and the continental shelf, together with linked sediment and ecosystem models. Nested POLCOMS numerical models run daily at POL, predicting several water quality parameters including mean currents, sea temperature and salinity
