Comments
Reached SAZ C site at 0730 and communicated with mooring. Mooring released in calm but foggy conditions and after a slight hunt it was spotted on the surface at 1225. Front with snow squalls came through as mooring recovery started and increasing wind speed (to 40 kt SW) made latter stages of recovery more difficult. Mooring fully recovered by 1530.
