Argentina, South Atlantic–The search-and-rescue team searching for the missing Argentine submarine faces rough seas.
The South Atlantic is infamous for its rough seas. Ships can literally be submerged by towering waves. And gales often reach storm-force levels.
The search for the ARA San Juan is focused on 250-mile radius in southern Argentina.
Hopefully, the international rescue force will be able to tame seas in time and find the missing submarine.

Each moment that passes must be sheer torture for the families of the 44 crew members. Just watching the video of the ship in the stormy seas took my breath away. With the explosion that was heard, the fierce weather, and the fact that they must resurface every 7 to 10 days to recycle their air supply, I think everyone fears the worst at this point. Still, there are miracles, may God help them. Thanks, Stavros
