Measured and forecast wind speed ard direction in Hurri- cane Anita at EB 71. This study demonstrates feasibility of obtaining useful forecasts of sea state in hurricanes with existing model capabilities. However, it must be remembered that the models are critically dependent upon a proper specifi- cation of the wind field which in turn depends upon accurate forecasts of storm track, intensity, and size. The errors seen in the forecast wave conditions of Belle and Anita are typical of the current state of the art. In view of those errors, it is appropriate that the computationally efficient parametric model be employed in ooerational 694 102!.
