Glad I didn't take the day off...
Because today wasn't going to let me off, anyway. SG142 didn't call home last night, so from the moment I got in until I packed everything up to go home I've been poring over the last logs and running through all sorts of scenarios to help the search team. They're going out on the R/V Saemundsson, so they probably won't be functional (read: they'll be hurly) for the first 24 hours, and they won't have an ADCP to tell them what the currents are doing or web access to see the latest plots of the glider locations and status -- and the ship's email arrives and sends only 4 times a day. By the time they get there, it will have been 2 days -- I've got search grids sketched, and just need to refine them in the next couple of hours.
And then it's waiting and hoping. Poor 142.
