woah.. there's actually 3 missions in progress
NHC and all parties involved want to get the best initial conditions for tonight's global model runs. Even a perfect model (which doesn't exist) sucks if you feed it shite data to start with.

mission #5... plane NOAA2... unknown mission
Oh my God. They're going to nuke the hurricane.

Six hourly upper-air soundings began at 1800 UTC today over the
central United States to better sample the upstream mid-latitude
trough. In addition, the NOAA G-IV aircraft is currently sampling
the environment around Irma, and these data will be included in
tonight's 0000 UTC model runs.
So is this the extra plane being referenced?
Sounds like the models from tonight forward will have all of the weather balloon and extra flight data plugged in, curious to see how this will affect our trough depth and movement.
Basically these models will be the ones to multiply the pucker factor for any given landfall region, at least for the next few days.

damn a 4th plane just popped up on the list HH are not playing around with this storm and rightfully so.

correct 00Z models will have this data tonight.

I'm thinking mission #4... the upper level recon that went to the ULL and not Irma... may be heading home

This is sickening.

Don't be stupid, this isn't the thread for that.
They're clearly going to get as many planes as possible to fly clockwise inside the hurricane to undo the rotation, or at least weaken it. It's really tricky doing this because they have to stop at just the right time, or else you're left with a typhoon instead.

South Florida is now in the cone. Remember, exact landfall is not yet known. But Florida should prepare. I'll explain the steering and timing factors for this storm on ABC World News Tonight with David Muir -- impacts this weekend!

Can't wait for Levi's update. I want to hear what he has to say about this storm.

Actually you'd have to fly counter clockwise since a plane pushes wind behind it. So you'd want to fly the direction the hurricane rotates, but faster than the hurricane winds, to put back pressure on it

I am triggered as frick by Irma.
