Weather Data For Garmin InReach and Others
If you are using sailmail or winlink email systems, I do not recommend you use this service. See our other weather page for services that are more compatible with larger text and gribs.
Garmin and other companies have a few text based email devices that are good for retrieving short messages. This service is primarily for InReach users, but it will work from any email device with no access to grib or normal long text messages like email.
Quick start
Email one command to wx@svsarana.com. For an InReach that has locked GPS at your current position, start with:
gfs
For a specific position, include latitude and longitude:
gfs 20N 155W
For a 48-hour forecast converted to Hawaii time:
gfs 20N 155W 48 utc=-10
A blank InReach message defaults to a 24-hour spot forecast using the device’s reported position.
What is this?
This is a tool for you to send extremely short requests and get extremely short messages of 160 characters each back. It caters to the Garmin InReach device, but there might be others out there that find it useful.
See InReach and tethered-phone examples
An InReach device receiving a response from wx@svsarana.com:

Choose a forecast
| Need | Start with | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Weather at a position, including land | gfs | gfs 20N 155W |
| Compact wind and sea forecast | spot | spot 20N 155W |
| Wave forecast | ww3 | ww3 20N 155W |
| Ocean currents | rtofs or roms | rtofs 20N 155W |
| WMO marine bulletins | metcat | met3a |
| NOAA coastal zones | catalog | PMZ021 |
gfs for land positions.An InReach supplies its GPS position automatically, so commands such as gfs, spot, and ww3 do not require coordinates as long has your device has a locked position.
A blank InReach message defaults to a 24-hour spot forecast. Other email devices should include a position.
Coordinates can use spaces, commas, colons, or pipes:
12.3N 155W 12.3N,155W 12.3N:155W 12.3N|155W
Position command options
Some keyboards like on the InReach, using a space or comma might be most convenient for separating options. For rtofs, gfs and spot commands you can follow them with the Lat,Lon and some other options and you can use any of the following characters to separate the options so all the following examples with latitude and longitude values are valid:
General Form: spot:lat,lon|hours|heading,speed|utc=offset|stats Delimiters: [space][comma][colon][pipe] ==> [ ][,][:][|] spot 10N 155W spot:10N:155W spot:10N 155W,utc=-7 spot|10N|155W|utc=-7|stats spot,10N,155W,utc=-7,stats
HOURS option
In general if hours is not specified it assumes a 24 hour time period and does it’s best to just send a single message back. Sometimes it doesn't all fit in one response, but in general the default 24 hours will try to produce the most compact result. You can set hours to 24 up to 96 in 6 hour increments. Remember that the longer the forecast the more messages required to send the information
HEADING,SPEED option
This ONLY works for the SPOT model, right now. You can request a forecast along a path using the heading as true degrees and the speed in knots. The forecast will then use your time interval specified by HOURS (or if not specified, 24 hours is assumed) and will compute a series of latitude and longitude points and provide a forecast along that line. If you plan on sailing at 150 degrees at about 5 knots, use this example. Spaces are shown, but commas, colons, or pipes can also be separators:
spot 12n 150w 150 5 utc=-10
Note: Heading and speed must be used together, in that order.
UTC Option
To convert the dates and times to your local zone, use the UTC option to tell the forecasting software what your time zone is. For example Mexico is -7 or -8 depending on daylight savings and your time zone. Hawaii is -10
STATS option
The "stats" provides a statistical average from the forecast, which is good for just getting a long term overview in 24/48/72 hours.
spot,10N,155W,utc=-7,stats -- produces the following response for wind predictions:
24hrs: max/avg/min 12-17/11.2-15.4/10-14 @ 17.8 48hrs: max/avg/min 12-17/10.2-13.9/8-11 @ 11.4 72hrs: max/avg/min 12-17/9.2-12.6/6-9 @ 7.5
The ranges represent the values found during any given prediction interval. So for max wind 12-17 this means there were some
forecast values that only had max winds to 12 knots, whereas there were some other forecast results that had 17. For example if a
forecast had the following characteristics:
hour 1 - 10-12
hour 2 - 14-17
hour 3 - 15-16
The STATS shows max ranges from 12 - 17 for this time interval. The @ direction in degrees represents the geometrical average
of the wind direction over that time frame.
InReach-specific options
The InReach sends its current GPS position automatically. To use that position, send one of these commands without latitude or longitude:
spotgfsgfdlrtofsww3roms
The default forecast length is 24 hours. A blank message uses spot.
WMO METAREA / GMDSS forecasts
The service can retrieve marine warnings and forecasts from the WMO Worldwide Met-Ocean Information and Warning Service. The available products change as national weather services publish or withdraw bulletins, so first request a catalog if you do not already know the command.
metcat list all METAREA commands met3 list the products currently available for METAREA III met3a retrieve one METAREA III product met3a,met3b retrieve more than one product
Be careful when requesting multiple or long products: responses are divided into blocks of approximately 160 characters, and some InReach plans charge for each block. A warning or high-seas forecast may require several messages.
METAREA command map
WMO divides METAREA VIII into North and South: met8 and met9 represent those two regions.
Beginning with met10, the command number is one greater than the official METAREA number.
met1 - METAREA I met12 - METAREA XI met2 - METAREA II met13 - METAREA XII met3 - METAREA III met14 - METAREA XIII met4 - METAREA IV met15 - METAREA XIV met5 - METAREA V met16 - METAREA XV met6 - METAREA VI met17 - METAREA XVI met7 - METAREA VII met18 - METAREA XVII met8 - METAREA VIII North met19 - METAREA XVIII met9 - METAREA VIII South met20 - METAREA XIX met10 - METAREA IX met21 - METAREA XX met11 - METAREA X met22 - METAREA XXI
Example subcatalog: METAREA III
Sending met3 returns a current subcatalog similar to this:
met3a - East / High Seas Warning met3b - East / High Seas Forecast met3c - West / High Seas Forecast met3d - Cyprus Forecast met3e - CROSS La Garde Forecast met3f - Irakleio Forecast met3g - Kerkyra Forecast met3h - Limnos Forecast met3i - Cabo La Nao Forecast met3j - Tarifa Forecast
The letter assigned to a product is generated from the current WMO catalog and can change when products are added or removed.
Check met3 again if an older product command stops working. You can also inspect the
current METAREA III page manually.
When WMO has no products for an area, wx-sms returns a short “No reports currently available” response instead of a blank message.
