How many days has the bp gulf oil spill been going on?

How long is estimated until the oil spill reaches Europe?
It won't. Ok, nothing is 100% certain, but no oil has made it out of the gulf coast, so dire predictions that the oil spill would enter the loop current and in the 2-3 days make its way to the Atlantic Ocean, has yet to occur. Oil in water tends to degrade and disperse with time, resulting in less total oil and in lower concentrations in the water.
When is the oil spill expected to hit Daytona Beach Fla?
It appears unlikely the oil spill will affect the eastern coast of Florida. I am not saying that it is impossible, as there is no such thing as 100% certainty with oil spill forecasts. The oil has in the past 68 days not entered the loop current. This has kept the oil in the gulf. Oil in time degrades and disperses, to the point were the concentration is nearly undetectable.
How do you fix a PSP if you spill water on it?
If you spill water on your PSP, first and foremost, do not try to turn it on. This can short out the circuit board. Let it air dry for a few days. You should also allow the UMD door to stay open to allow moisture to escape.

Why did the oil spill occur in gulf of Mexico?
One of BP's oil rigs exploded, damaging one of the oil pipes below the surface. Stopping the spill took so long because it was very deep, and high pressure amounted that far down. This caused clogging the pipe to take some 72 days.
How many days has the oil spill been?
This depends on which oil spill is being referred to. See related questions.

How lightly is it for the oil in the gulf disaster to enter gulf stream?
It is unlikely, at least for the immediate future. When there are so many variables involved, it is very difficult to predict. Wind and gulf currents are important factors which do not remain constant. To enter the gulf stream, it must first enter the loop current. So far, the oil spill has not entered the loop current, at least in noticeable quantities. The longer oil stays in the gulf, the better as natural forces will degrade and disperse the oil. A forecast of the next two days movement is attached. Note the colors in the graphs are ocean surface temperatures.
