Tampa, United States - October 11, 2024

In the wake of the devastating Hurricane Milton, the skies above Tampa Bay were patrolled by a vigilant U.S. Coast Guard Air Station Miami HC-144 Ocean Sentry aircrew. On October 11, 2024, this aerial team flew over the waters where three Coast Guard cutters, Thetis, Resolute, and Pablo Valent, were strategically positioned to provide critical search and rescue capabilities.

The Coast Guard's response to the double impact of hurricanes Helene and Milton has been nothing short of heroic. With both Coast Guard Sector St. Petersburg and Air Station Clearwater severely affected by the storms, the cutters' presence off Tampa Bay's coast is a beacon of hope and security for the region.

The aerial surveillance not only serves to coordinate the efforts of the cutter crews but also acts as a reassuring presence for residents and emergency services alike. The cutters, equipped for extended maritime operations, are ready to respond to any distress calls, ensuring that the waters remain safe during this critical period.
