40 Shipping Containers Adrift Off US Pacific Coast After Vessel Hit By Rough Seas
The global supply chain is more snarled than ever, forcing container ships to stack truck-size intermodal containers to the brim in a technique called containerization. The more shipping containers loaded up on a vessel, the more prone it becomes to an accident at sea in adverse weather conditions.
That’s precisely what happened last night, off the Pacific Coast, when stormy seas knocked 40 shipping containers off a vessel. The incident occurred when an inbound container ship about 43 miles west of the Strait of Juan de Fuca entrance was listed to its side due to a storm.

The Coast Guard dispatched a helicopter from Port Angeles, Washington, to investigate the incident. What they found were 35 containers floating and unable to find the rest.
This weekend, a powerful storm is on the Pacific Coast and is responsible for heavy seas and high winds that put container ships at risk of losing cargo.
The next significant storm system for Sunday into Monday is taking shape about 1900 miles to our west this evening. The fast moving clouds to its south is the location of the jet stream which will interact with the system as it develops and strengthens over the weekend. #wawx pic.twitter.com/klh9AUw9kJ

In April, reports surged of containers being lost as sea as vessels were being stacked to full capacity amid strained supply chains. The unintended consequence of packing ships full of cargo is that they become more accident-prone in rough waters. Add this potential risk to an already fragile supply chain that is experiencing record congestion at ports.

there is NO SHORTAGE. ITS ALL FAKE
~~Lets hope and pray there no living bodies
on those that fell.
~These container ships have the best Satellite/
-Navigational equipment money can buy—
~~(there normal cargo is to valuable to risk losing)
~(That’s just straight-up normal protocol)
~
~So why the freak would the Capitan not move away
from any questionable weather?
~
~~All these ships have sophisticated radar and can
see any problem precipitation miles away.?!?!
~losing your shipment to weather these days is next
to impossible. Like oil tankers running a-ground—
—-99.99% impossible
~With new weather concerns, why wouldn’t you start
moving south?
~~With the ports not opening up, head for Houston,
—(you know, a Red State Port—that is Open!)
~Stuff can still be off-loaded AND distributed, but
will take longer.
~
~~~That’s way better than dead in the water!!
Let BLM and ANTIFA go out to sea and loot the containers floating around. Will make everyone happy.
