SVP buoy fitted with a barometer (photo by DBi) The drifters are deployed from research vessels, volunteer ships, and through air deployment. [5] They typically transmit their data hourly and had an average lifetime of ~485 days in 2001. [5] Presently, enough data is gathered to observe currents at a horizontal resolution of one degree (~100 km ...
"Once in the Gulf of Mexico, slight differences in Rafael's intensity and atmospheric steering winds could have a significant impact on its final track," said Bill Deger, a meteorologist with ...

The first buoys deployed by NDBC were the large 12-m discus hulls constructed of steel. These were generally deployed in deep water off the U.S. East Coast and in the Gulf of Mexico. By 1979, 16 stations were deployed in the Pacific, 7 in the Atlantic, and 3 in the Gulf of Mexico. Eight more stations were deployed in the Great Lakes after 1979.
Milton "is forecast to quickly intensify while it moves eastward to northeastward across the Gulf of Mexico and be at or near major hurricane strength when it reaches the west coast of the Florida ...
