Definitely a TD and could even be Bret. Its making landfall and I am surprised Reconn is flying into a tropical system that is landfalling.

I don't know where those first 3 reports came from early in this thread, but that plane was heading NE toward Biloxi. The last recon fix posted (Ob 1 at 1825Z) looks like it could be a plane going down there. I estimate the position of the depression to be near 19.6N/95.7W, or about 42 miles offshore. At the rate it's moving, it'll be inland in 8-12 hours. Not much time to develop.
Here's an 18Z shot:

That flight level wind was way up to the north, about 700 miles to the northeast of the center- so I don't think it's significant in terms of defining a circulation.
I am not a retard! That is why I said love that jet. It is the SW wind flow you see on the sat pics.

Actually... it's better than being gone during Early to Mid September. Last year we had Alex, Bonnie, Charley, Danielle, Earl in that timeframe, but it's usually not that active then.

They are more closer now to the system than from the gulf coast so in an hour or less they will be there.
