Analysis of Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill Area, Roffer’s Ocean Fishing Forecasting System, July 12, 2010:
The water south of the Deepwater Horizon site now appears to be moving more southward toward 88°00-90°30’W between 28°30’N and 27°30’N, but then it continues to be pulled southeastward toward 87°00-88°00’W & 27°00’N…
On your way southwestward from Tampa/St. Petersburg, FL, we would suggest that a good area to sample for surface and subsurface oil would be along the stong [sic] convergence zone from 84°00’W & 26°35’N to 84°30’W & 27°15’N and also from 84°55’W & 27°30’N to 85°15’W & 27°45’N where the water masses appear to have remained relatively stable for the past four days.
Continuing westward, we continue to monitor the currents associated with a cyclonic eddy centered near 85°30’W & 27°25’N and an anti-cyclonic eddy centered west of Naples near 84°40’W & 26°15’N. This is a classic “hammerhead” circulation that is pulling a relatively small portion of the WOM eastward to the Florida continental shelf edge and perhaps northward towards the northern eddy. This circulation is likely to persist for a few days at least. …
We were able to confirm the position of the surface oil particularly east and south of the Deepwater Horizon well site with this afternoon’s MODIS visible RGB imagery.
ROFFS explains the newly added areas of red and purple on the map:
Today we have provided a second graphic, which shows areas where the convergence zones have remained stable for three days in opaque red and areas where the convergence zones have remained stable for four days in opaque purple.
These areas highlighted in opaque red and purple are likely to contain the strongest convergence zones which are likely to contain a combination of oil (in areas where they overlap the water masses we have labeled with “WOM), sargassum, fish, and bait.
The WOM label is water/oil/dispersant mix:

This is one of the worst things that could happen to our fishing and vacation industry in the Gulf Coasts. It needs to stop now.
This is heartbreaking. How did we as people let this happen?
Another view of the disaster.

Well, the elite will have to find another vacation spot now, won’t they? Perhaps on the west coast of Mexico. Let the common ‘tool users’ deal with the stench and filth.
Now that Mexico’s EEZ (Exclusive Economic Zone) is also affected, the question is: When will the International Seabed Authority, a UN agency based in Kingston (Jamaica) start doing what they were supposed to do from Day 1 (and have not done)?

We operate Tourist Whale Shark Snorkeling Trips swimming with Whale Sharks off the Top Tip of the Yucatan Peninsula. As of Today we have seen NO OIL! We will be on the lookout daily & will report here & with http://www.travelyucatan.com
If this CRAP comes here its OVER for the Poor Whale Sharks!
BP is a terrorist organization the same as Al Qaeda and BP Corporate officers have committed a terrorist act against America by murdering Americans and destroying the Gulf of Mexico (in process). Simply declare BP a terrorist organization and send all company officers to Guantanamo for daily waterboarding until they confess (Bush & Cheney solution) then introduce them to Cuban firing squad. The patriot act would apply and all problems are solved.
btw, where does gulf stream go? is it that way its going now?
We’re all fried if all this oil is radioactive as it has been shown. This is an important fact of this oil spill that is being covered up!.
I am appalled that certain posters here do not know about the Gulf Stream currents – no wonder americans are being so complacent about this global disaster!
Must be all that fluoride they’ve been dosing you with…
Ok, Gulf Stream – check it out – the birthplace of every warm current in the Atlantic; birthplace of ALL marine creatures food source ‘cos once this _diabolical_ mess fetches up in the Sargasso Sea you can say goodbye to living oceans and eventually all life.
Who is taking this seriously enough – certainly not the US gubbermint, that’s for sure!
And how come DICK Cheney is once again involved in an attack on America? How come these neoCONS aren’t in jail yet?
Oh right, I forgot, you’re all drugged by BigPharma and Joe Lieberman!
amerikhuns: you get free oil, and you are still complaining!
These “neocons” are destroying the world, do not care about, this was not an unexpected error was caused, is part of its interest in deepening the global crisis to promote the New World Order
Wow that is scary how much of an impact it had. Thanks for the pictures!
This image likely shows algae and upwelled water from the Yucatan. If this SAR image was properly mapped with a latitude/longitude grid it would be seen that this area is west of the areas we have listed with strong convergence on the ROFFS™ analysis.
