Treacherous seas: Huge waves crashing into a landing stage in the French Reunion island in the Indian Ocean. Heavy seas, pouring rain and low cloud are a daily occurrence in the ocean, especially during the winter season.
IT’S a terrible place. And when winter comes – like it has now – the southern Indian Ocean has been described as the worst place in the world.
Unstable weather, dangerous conditions, high waves and wild seas all make for a terrifying scene, even for large ships. For rescue personnel trying to get to the bottom of MH370’s mystery, its a nightmare.
