Latitude: 17° 51.79´N Longitude: 66° 30.62´W Location Description: South of Caja de Muertos Island Deployed: May 10 2018 Coast Guard Light List Letter: A Coast Guard Light List Number 31941 Water Depth: 17 meters (56 feet) Watch Circle Radius: 60 meters (197 feet) Last Cell Phone Transmission: Sep 20, 01 AM AST Last GOES Transmission: Sep 22, 12 AM AST Latest Event: May 10, 09 AM AST
Last cell phone call was received prior to buoy arriving back on station (probable issues with cell coverage after last fall's hurricane). |

Click on the graph icons below to see time series plots of the listed variables. The latest conditions are in local time but all plots are in GMT(Summer EDT is 4 hours behind GMT; Winter EST is 5 hours behind GMT; Atlantic AST is always 4 hours behind GMT).
We follow the convention that depth is measure positive "down". That's why parameters like wind speed have negative depths attached to them! The latest eastward and northward subsurface currents are displayed at a subset of available depths; no plots are presently available for current velocity vectors below 2m.
