Gustav Recon Discussion
Use this thread to discuss recon.
Is it just me, or are they getting there awfully fast?

Re: TD Seven Recon Discussion
My prediction is that they will find
Max flight level winds 61 knots
SMRF 46 knots
Pressure 999 millibars
We will see

They took off around 1500z so it does seem that way, yes. Although they did not leave from Keesler apparently.

You'll probably be eating a lot of crow with that guess.

Re: TD Seven Recon Discussion
If nothing else this will be the most interesting recon visit in a while. I hope they stay safe (I know they're professionals) and don't get caught off guard by a stronger than expected storm.

Re: TD Seven Recon Discussion
If we have learned anything this year so far, it is that satellite pictures do not always tell the tale. This looks good, but so did Fay. That clearing feature is very interesting however. Recon will be interesting. I will guess 50kts 997 just for fun.

Re: TD Seven Recon Discussion
Also notice the MAJOR lull in winds when recon passed over the eye feature.

Well the SE quad is substantially stronger than I expected ...
I have to believe there are stronger winds than that on the north side.
