Early last night, we got a nice hydrography section along the western edge of our experimental area showing an intrusion of a warm core ring (red) penetrating further upslope than expected. Later last night the weather soured and blew 40+ kts with the some waves getting above 20 ft! This worried us since the waves could easily wash our gear off the deck. Luckily, the weather improved enough by this morning to start some seasoar runs. With both the sea soar *and* one acoustic array simultaneaously in the water, we will meet a major objective of our experiment.

The seasoar has already gathered some temperatures from the western section of our experimental area.
Conditions:
Temp: 35° F
Wind dir: E
Wind spd: 10 Knots
