BarentsWatch is a very helpful service for passage plannings within the Norwegian coast and beyond. The last gale force storm went through over night gusting 40kn and the wave is now following for another 24 hours. We had three times 40 plus knots of wind within the last 10 days. Passing through relatively fast at least. Some gusts extremely short and crisp. 

The snapshot illustrates the whirlpool kind of character within the waters around Værøy Island and Lofoten Mainland also known as the Moskstraumen.
