Whoa, didn't realize a recon was still in there. Pressure has come up a bit...only 2 mb though.

For pure looks alone, Floyd and Mitch were some of the most awe inspiring to me. Gilbert was awesome as well.

Recon is still in there. I don't know if it's the same plane, a new one, or what. Maybe we'll see another VDM soon. Frances is probably becoming a Cat 5 as we speak. The CDO is now symettric, the eye is circular and clear, and cloud tops continue to cool. She's still continuing on a 280 heading from my best estimates.

Your observation and mine are the same. Can't wait to see that new VDM.

Infra red signature is looking like a cat5, I agree totally.
