Some of NOAA's oceanic buoys may not be fixed until November due to location and access. Like it's not as if this issue just suddenly appeared one morning, it's been coming around (again) for nearly the past 20 years. Similar with BOM in Australia who had to cancel their weather balloon launches following the April 6 rollover due to affected equipment. Some marine navigation systems failed in a big way. Hard to understand really how some organisations and manufacturers got this so wrong?
