NDBC will stop supporting outdated links on December 1, 2009

• All links to NDBC web pages with a "phtml" extension have been renamed to use a "php" extension. E.g.,

  http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/station_page.phtml?station=xxxxx
  has become
  http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/station_page.php?station=xxxxx

• The '$' is no longer used in the argument list of the station_page.

  http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/station_page.phtml?$station=xxxxx
  has become
  http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/station_page.php?station=xxxxx

• The plot links have changed. The page is now called plot_met.php and the three arguments are broken out as station, meas and uom. The values are still the same as they were previously.

  http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/plot_param.phtml?$station=42036$atmp$E
  is now
  http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/plot_met.php?station=42036&meas=atmp&uom=E

• Requests to these old links are being redirected now. However, these redirects will be removed on December 1, 2009. If you have any links to these old pages in your web pages or bookmarks, please make the necessary corrections to your links.
