Comments
The winds climbed steadily last night peaking early this morning with hurricane force winds in the 70's. They are abating very slowly as we continue to make our way into the seas and wind, slowly clawing our way towards the shelter afforded by the Western Ice Shelf; less fetch and hopefully calmer seas.
Cheers
Andy and Misty
