Welcome all
So, our carrier left Zeebrugge earlier today, at 2:36PM UTC, for Southampton, UK. Our ETA is to arrive there in about 3.5 hrs, so I figure we will be spending part of the night outside the port (unless they allow us to sail in during the night but I kind of doubt that). At least we're right on schedule
It seems to be pretty busy right now in the English Channel..
But thankfully there is a setting to make everyone else magically disappear
And here's an even better overview:
The air temperature is currently between 7.5 and 9 Celsius (abt 45-50F), and it seems the water temperature is about the same. 2 hours after we arrive, it will be high tide, which lasts until about 9 AM. There is about 5 NM visibility and there is currently a pretty strong headwind (which will get less by the time we get closer to port). The waves are about 1 meter high (about 3 feet), which is nothing to what we currently see in Hawaii (8 feet currently but a couple of weeks ago up to 20). And this concludes your current conditions.
Btw, for those wondering if I have nothing better to do: I guess I do but I don't really feel like it at the moment
