Inside Monterey Bay - Weather buoys data sites - wind and swell

I was looking at the info for the buoy mid-way out beyond a line from Davenport to Pt Pinos and started clicking on the sites shown on a little chart - much to my surprise (Tho I've seen the buoys) it shows the information from two buoys much closer to the Monterey launch sites, one (the site above) with wind and water temp "MTYC1"  looks on my fishing chart to be right into MBK, and the other little diamond right next to it on the site's chart (but actually over near Cabrillo Pt near Hopkins Marine Station south of Lovers Pt. that has the swell( "46240").  
 I'm going to be checking these from now on when I'm planning a trip that way.   The point and click site gives predictions, I suppose based in part on this info - it'll be interesting to compare the predictions with the actual readings.
 

I know I'm replying to my own post, but: clicking more windows on the MTYC1 buoy site, I don't think I'm going to take those wind readings as indicative of how it's blowing a mile or so out on the bay.  The 45 day list of data hardly ever shows the wind even getting up to 7 mph, and mostly it's reading in the 2's and 3's.  Tho the numbers change as do those for the direction.  I suppose it might be helpful if I look at the numbers relative to the pattern, and not think that it's only blowing 4 out on the bay, when that's double the usual 2 readings way inside the lee of the peninsula.
