Low pressure is now over 77 deg SST, there's been plenty of other subtropical systems develop in that range. Again, the only killer to indentification as it gets closer to the coast is the much drier air along the coast, but we have to look at it this way, there is now warmer & moist air flowing into the system as well,

People have been questioning why recon wasn't scheduled for today. My best guess (and maybe if Pojo sees this, she'll add her two cents) is that 90L didn't get "recon-worthy" until after the Plan of the Day was issued. Since the crews need at least 24-hours of notice before flying... they couldn't get it a flight for today, so they're trying for tomorrow.

"Recon-worthy"? Reminds me of Seinfeld episode...
