57, I won't charge you with a federal crime (haha) as I truly respect your tropical knowledge and forecasting prowess, but I do have a challenge for your "NHC wants to run tests on their new software" theory. Specifically, if NHC was running a test, why wouldn't they use TEST designators, and in the case of 97L (which you also proposed being a test), why would NHC schedule a recon flight?
