Nope, not today, tomorrow morning. Look at the date-it is the 22nd and at 1200 utc.

They should talk about this in their 11:30 TWO, so we should know for sure by then.

So, it IS going out this afternoon? Is that correct?

Aquawind · #12 Postby **Aquawind** » Wed Jul 21, 2004 9:53 am

Typo shmypo... :roll:

Yes; there would be no point to a 22/2100Z flight tomorrow, as there are already 22/18Z and 23/0Z flights....

They very clearly meant a flight today and just typed the wrong date.

I'm confident they are flying today. There were some 50 knot barbs in this mornings quickscat. Given the shape of the system...if they close off a low we will probably go straight to Alex.

They did mean today..but wether they fly or not today is still in open..most likely they will...this blob is impressive and been chugging along for more than a couple hours..

Let's keep in mind that when they type "this afternoon," they may actually mean the afternoon during which the TCPOD is scheduled for....not the afternoon of the day it was written.

But it could also be a typo.

In that case they mean this afternoon since that was typed today.

Why would they schedule a resources-permitting flight for a time when they will already be flying?

Well it not logical because of the already scheduled flights for tomorrow as pointed out by our Recon visionary Derecho..

I thought they were referring for tomorrow and verified with the date..but if they use that kind of verbage for something isssued today.. but valid tomorrow..it's pretty stupid..hence..

typo shmypo..either way.. :roll:
