Today there were no flights. Hurricane Rita made landfall at around 08 UTC Saturday. There are no plans for flights during the next day. N42RF is down for an inspection on Monday after encountering moderate turbulence in Friday's flight. N43RF is planning a Gulf AXBT post-Rita survey mission on Monday, while the NRL P-3 is not anticipating flying in the next day or two. Elsewhere in the Tropics it is relatively quiet. There are no potential targets expected within at least the next day or two.
