This question is for anyone who knows this. Why they wait until the 23rd to have the gulfstream jet flying, instead of the 22nd? Maybe is not ready or another reason? Where is our friend pojo?

[KWT]

Looks like recon will be flying tomorrow then afterall, not all that surprising...looks like they are expecting a TC by the 22nd as well...

[cycloneye]

No go for recon today.

[wzrgirl1]

I am a little surprised actually. I think that may be towing the line a little.

[Frank2]

It's a good decision - there's nothing out there to investigate, other than a well-sheared wave and considering the expense of the flights it'd be a waste of funds...

[wzrgirl1]

My concern is the short notice the residents will get to prepare. Not everyone keeps track of these systems as we do and if south florida were to be affected with a tropical storm or minimal hurricane by Friday a.m. then that wouldn't give people much time to prepare.

[cycloneye]

Here is todays TCPOD. The only plane that will fly today will be the gulfstream jet.

Here is the gulfstream jet plan for this afternoon thru the evening dropping those dropsondes.
