Hello All
As they say "another day, another dollar".
Things onboard today are mostly unchanged with the outside temperature dropping finally below freezing and recorded at midday as -1°C. We will probably only see positive outside temperatures when we are heading north again. This dry bulb temperature combined with a 15 knots wind results in a wind-chill equivalent temperature of -13°C. It is therefore vital for us to assess the wind strength when having members work outside and exposed.
Tomorrow will be our last day of CTD's after which we will start work against the ice shelf again...change they say is as good as a holiday.
The swell height is a little worrying and will hopefully lower slightly by the time we are at the ice shelf again. The weather outlook for Akta Bay is favourable for the next couple of days.
Have a good mid week.
