Looks like three-hourly fixes will continue all night and into tomorrow. Since it is late, I will let the nole comments slide.

Nice to have a storm to follow eh?

Beautiful, man. Nothing better than a lazy summer night spent tracking hurricanes.

They are over and out, which means some time without any recon. Oh, boy. I can see the "she's bombing to a cat 5" posts now.

Seminoles ROCK!

Wolfpack ROCKS!

Always better to pull all-nighters when tomorrow is an off-day. However, that is a rare luxury.

Oh yeah

Next mission should be up soon - any takers for OBS or MAPS?

Heading back south. They're not done.
