Threat to Miami sector no change. 175 miles St. Pete Weather conditions remain favorable to keep oil plume away from the FL coast for the next 72 hrs AS OF 271200RMAY10 Offshore projection Forecasts as of 25 May 10 Estimates for 1200 CDT 26 May 10
DEEP WATER HORIZON J2 - Situation Update 75 miles 305 miles St. Pete Onshore projection Last 24 hrs: Threat to NW FL no change. Threat to St. Pete sector no change. Threat to Keys sector no change. Threat to Miami sector no change. 160 miles St. Pete Weather conditions remain favorable to keep oil plume away from the FL coast for the next 72 hrs AS OF 271200RMAY10 Offshore projection Forecasts as of 26 May 10 Estimates for 1200 CDT 27 May 10
DEEP WATER HORIZON J2 - Situation Update 1 NE sheen projected to break up Onshore projection Oil interaction with Tortugas Eddy 24 HOUR FORECAST 1. Sheen break up allows for greater natural dispersion. 2. Loop Current disruption continues to carry bulk of offshore oil to N / NW. Offshore projection Forecast as of 26 May 10 Estimates for 1200 CDT 28 May 10
Trajectories of observed oil suggest some sheens will continue to be caught up in the counterclockwise eddy. DEEP WATER HORIZON J2 - Situation Update A smaller portion may move into the Loop Current and persist as widely scattered tarballs. Offshore projection Forecast as of 26 May 10 Estimate for 1200 CDT 29 May 10
LOOP CURRENT DEEP WATER HORIZON J2 - Situation Update Modeling continues to project a shift in the Loop Current that could significantly reduce the amount of oil forecasted to reach Florida. It is less likely oil presently in Loop Current will make it to the FL west coast unless a strong tropical weather system emerges in the Gulf pushing surface oil east. Keys could still experience tar balls in the next 7 10 days. Graphic as of 25 May 2010 For Visual Reference Only
