Most everyone is just kinda in "standby" mode- not doing much of anything, securing gear for a heavier sea state that we expect tomorrow.  The ground swell starting coming up awhile ago, and we expect it to get much higher.  We have had 2 rain bands (600 miles away???!!!) come through with a sustained wind speed of 33 knots.  after the thunderstorms pass, the wind dies off.  Lots of lighting this morning off to our east and some to the south.  Of course, we do expect more of that today and going forth.  We are staying out at the well site, the smaller vessels (crew boats, utility boats, tugs) are heading in, they are expecting 12' - 16' seas so it will be a ride! Unfortunately, ya don't want ROV'S or a crane working when you are bouncing up and down that much, so it's "hurry up and wait" time.
