Hello All
Yesterday afternoon we went for our Christmas afternoon drive after lunch when conditions were still not flyable. We are expecting some heavier weather on the 28th and 29th and wanted to see what the bay ice conditions were looking like in Muskeg Bukta. No bay ice was visible in Otter Bukta. We will probably use Admiral Byrd Bukta as a hideaway when the easterly storm comes through.
Today conditions remain rather grim for flying with visibility improving to at most 1NM. The CAT train arrived at SANAE last night and left for Penguin Bukta this morning. If the conditions allow we should be able to start with the refuelling tomorrow.
There is a massive (20NM) iceberg rounding Troll Tunga at the moment..."rumble rumble, hear comes the judge"... It is not yet detectable by radar, but we will keep a good eye on its movement.
We wish you a relaxing Sunday afternoon.
