Haunted by Hurricane Jova

Jova is now a Category 3 Hurricane, and is forecast to become Category 4 before it makes landfall in Mexico later this week. Although Jova is considerably north of us, we are getting nasty swell from this monster storm. This means it's not safe to launch the ROV, so we're delayed until the weather improves. Sadly, it will get worse before it gets better. In the meantime, we're going to figure out the best way to utilize our time here -- probably more ship-based multibeam mapping and some CTD Tow-Yos.
