Event 12a
Detailed weather reports were taken by Stewart Ross for most of the field days (except while at Vanda and Scott Base). Only one day in 21 was unfit for work; this too contributed to the early return to Scott Base.
Event 12b
Weather reports were also maintained daily by the party. No days were lost, due to the nature of the scientific work. Although visibility on the sea ice was occasionally very low, no high winds were encountered.
