Many of the speeds in this record were below the current meter's
threshold and have been set to 1.10 cm/sec. The directions corresponding
to these speeds have been set to 75.84 degrees. These directions should
be considered an artifact of the data processing rather than ocean
measurements. Use these data with caution.
