Some ships failed to reach homebases are spending the gale in special shelter zones.
A severe storm goes on in the Barents and the White seas; wind strength is 30-35 mps with gusts up to 40 mps, wave height is 6-7 meters. Hazardous conditions are complicated by low visibility, blizzards, and fast icing of ships. According to NF command's estimates, the fleet is prepared for such environmental "attacks".
