There are going to be times when you don’t need a forecast but you need to know what the weather conditions were like at a specific time and location; last week, last month, even 10 years ago.

Historic weather is important for climatological input into design criteria for offshore or shipping activities. It also becomes extremely important should you find yourself facing an accident investigation or legal action.

There are many different methodologies for looking at historical weather conditions but MeteoGroup Offshore offers the most cost effective with “hindcast”.  Hindcast will tell you what the conditions were like during a specific voyage or at a specific location anywhere on the globe and whether these conditions were predictable or could have been reasonably expected.  We use sophisticated weather models, and the extensive experience of our forecasters to produce hindcasts.
