Sea state is not great at the North Atlantic tomorrow. Wx at the US Eastern seaboard is pretty bad. I call no BS on the delay. But hey, you're free to spend time at EHLW if you want to...
Further, if the tankers do depart tomorrow, you'll know early enough to still be able to drive 5 to 6 hours if needed.

Joostmil just made this remark... but realize many spotters will be driving hundreds of kilometers to see them arriving. If you say 'I just received this message' make it clear to everyone what the official source is! Then we can make up our minds to go or stay at home... :?:
Maybe Joostmil is not able to give away his source(s). From the past I know the info he passed here was very reliable.

Cheers,

No I think 9 and three-quarters for Leeuwarden. ;-)

Yes, still 8 for Leeuwarden (and 4 for Keflavik), but the arrival is delayed with at least 24 hours.

What is Shanwick...
Shanwick: ATC located in Shannon (Ireland) and Prestwick (Scotland, UK), hence the name. Shanwick looks after traffic in the Northern Atlantic coast of Europe.
NOTAM code: EGGX...

even in de NOTAM droid app gegooid... en hoppa, die van EHLW is beter leesbaar
