Last post. I'll post an image once the mission is done. It's near landfall anyway, zooming along.

Air Force near center again. NOAA P-3 on the way too.

[Chris_in_Tampa]

Convection ahead of flight level center.

979.6 mb lowest extrap surface pressure.

[Chris_in_Tampa]

71 knot flight level in last set, but SFMR not as high as earlier in the mission in other quadrants.

[Chris_in_Tampa]

Last image from me.

72 knot flight level in last set, again SFMR not as high as earlier in the mission.

Air Force mission ascending, but final NOAA mission still on the way for now.

At 3:54am EDT the NOAA plane was 32 miles to the ENE from Wilmington, NC.
