bear,

LNP @
2.58.8'N
30.35.4'W

VS sighted June 6 @ 13h38 @
3.61 N
30.62 W

VS recovered June 7 @ 18h35 @
3.47N
30.68W

On June 1, north of the LKP, surface winds were blowing from the NNE to NE direction, with much convection.

On June 2 and days following, winds became more easterly, and decreased. Convection was less as well.

On June 1, the drift group's optimal interpolation of the current near the LNP is that it was from the N/NNE toward the S/SSW, South of 3N, the current quickly turns SE and then east.
