Re: 94L Recon Discussion Thread
Thunder44,will you have a contest today? The question for the contest would be if recon finds or not a closed circulation.

Is this pretty typical to fly into an invest? Is it because it is so close to land?

They will fly into most invests that threaten land that could be near depression/storm stregth.

I might do them when they start descending.
By the way, no recon contest for invests, because I don't know if they will report back a VDM. The contests will start if this develops to a TD.
