Once H^ is determined for the point of maximum wind from equation (3-59) 

 it is possible to obtain the approximate deepwater significant wave height 

 H„ for other areas of the hurricane by use of Figure 3-43.

 for slow-moving hurricane. 



The corresponding approximate wave period may be obtained from 



T = 12.1
