An early start to the season, then. Of course, NRL does call non-tropical systems INVESTs sometimes but most times it's when NHC are really looking closely at it so I won't be surprised if advisories got started or they add it posthumously to the rosteer...

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, :wink:

Storm Vince or Epsilon Whichever over
76 degree water if I recall correctly.

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.

Will it have "made landfall"/crossed the coast by then though?

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

Okay, an admittedly-cynical question: How long until the media starts hyping up the "early start", if they do decide to do so? Can't be long I imagine.
