Mission synopsis: August 17, 2010 NOAA is watching PGI27 for signs of development. If it slows, turn northwestward and possibly affect the Gulf, NOAA would seriously consider flying. Then NOAA will be looking east for PGI30 or PGI31. If TC development occurs this weekend there is a possible tasking the G-IV. NOAA will keep watching. […]
