I’ve looked and looked and can not find another source that says operation have halted. I am calling BS on this article.
I’ve tried and tried and can not confirm this story. I think it is bogus and should be removed.
I just checked buoys in the area and winds are ten knots or less. I will be amazed if they ever get to 20-25 which should not be a problem for major drillers like BP.
IMHO,the only reason to stop drilling and capping the well would be to put more oil in the water and support environmental Marxists who want all drilling stopped.
To get there they need more oil in the water everywhere including the coastline.
