94L was a threat to the US and the crews were bored...

Well this one has favorable conditions, and 94L only cause some locally heavy rains. In fact the low still exists currently, but will entirely diminish by tomorrow.

Also the remark WXWXA usually indicates a training mission.

RMK AF307 WXWXA

If they were going out for a first look the remark would probably look like this:

RMK AF302 01BBA INVEST

"for real" missions start with URNT11

Also the remark WXWXA usually indicates a training mission.

RMK AF307 WXWXA

If they were going out for a first look the remark would probably look like this:

RMK AF302 01BBA INVEST

Yeah, I saw that, I thought that was different. Let's see where it goes.

A "resources permitting" flight would be one where this "TD" is in the central gulf, with extremely favorable condtions to rapidly develop and head north into the gulf coast.

Hmmm....well I don't think this one quite conforms to your conditions above but:

OUS42 KNHC 281745

Looks like they decided to go down after all. Like I said they do it all the time, If they want an aircraft they usually can get one.

It does seem that the systems movement has slowed down considerably. it may now have more time over water and this might have had some bearing on deciding to go.[size=18][/size]
