Weather Forecast from the OPS Center

Wind and sea condition forecast for the R/V Ron Brown, for 0324/1200 -
0325/0000. Predicted winds are expected to remain from NNW, approximately 10
ms-1. The signifcant wave height is expected to be 8 - 12 feet, possibly
increasing to over 12 feet by 0000 on the 25th. A transient anticyclone
northwest of the ship's track will strengthen, so winds will subsequently shift
from the NNE to NE west of 160 E.
