Method of evaluation of cumulative probability of appearance of wind waves with any given height is described. The method is based on direct modeling of wind wave fields and uses long-term dataset of significant wave height. The application of the method using wave forecast model data is presented. The disadvantages of the analyses of annually and seasonally average fields of extreme wave height probability obtained by the method are considered. Another application of evaluating of extreme wave height field based on the method is proposed.
