DDPH: not working/too high/jumping all over the place/warmer than TA probably due to being in precip. systems: used A, NHC fel they were too high on SLP by 2-3 mb. Issues/Remarks: -non standard flight path, completed two fixes on center to west, then went to fix possible reforming center to east but did not find center. Legs modifed to 200NM on NE and SE sides and 45 NM on West side of storm for first two fixes. Then drove SE to find reforming center. more interested in winds on east side of storm. Also, had to ascend two times from 025 to 050 due to weather. Should be good on fix times, due to first center not being where forecasted, then last one trying to fix a reforming center.
