As a meteorologist, I have been reading some of the accounts many of you are going through. I am hopeful the link above provides you with some useful information. You can put in your latitude and longitude and it will provide you with the nearest buoy data available.

The lastest on the rapidly developing low pressure area...it is showing an air pressure reading of 983 mb. Currently located about 250 miles off the SE NC coast and moving northward. Your ship is SW of this storm and moving away from it.

This low pressure is what is known by meteorologist as a bomb. These are rapidly intensifying areas of low pressure and are also referred to as Nor'easters and winds sometimes reach over Hurricane Force. Unlike a hurricane, the winds are not concentrated near the center. Instead, these system produce strong winds over a larger area.

Still, as the storm moves north and your ship travels southwest, conditions should get better. Prayers for all.

...you're one of the reason I miss living in Greensboro. Thanks for the report!!

Very interesting, thanks for the link.
