from another board, posted yesterday afternoon:

"The NOAA Ship Okeanos Explorer is returning from their Gulf Of Mexico research trip. They have a bunch of Meteorological instruments onboard. They have been reporting from within 100nm of the system with NW winds of 35 kts for the last couple of hours"

"The ships name is the Sea-Land Champion and It is a major corporation cargo ship... Indeed it just sent a report in of 1000.0 mb and 65 kt winds... Shipwx.info has it."

the last "ship" reporting this am looks like the location of Okeanos Explorer  http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/radial_search.php?storm=at1  it's about 145 miles away, going by latitude/longitude & Google maps distance tool

5 am - still at 50mph per NHC  http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/#ALBERTO
