The weather has been mixed.

Near Belitung Island (the nearest "big" island) the weather was relatively good (light rain). But closer to the last known point, there has been lower visibility, with 3+ meter swells in light thunderstorms which added to the difficulties.

There might be some air assets which may be able to continue to search tonight, but for the most part they will have to wait until tomorrow to re-start.
