Also, how can you not fly into a very impressive storm for the month of May?
$$$$$$
They have a limited budget for recon flights each year and while this storm is an oddity and interesting in its own right -- there will be much more severe and life-threatening systems that need recon later in the season compared to the remnants of Andrea.
The budget should be adjusted for the need. If there are much more severe and life-threatening systems that need recon later in the season (which we all hope won't be the case), they should be able to appropriate emergency funds to do the recon flights then. When I hear "resource issues", I tend to think of personnel issues, but money is obviously an issue as well. However, it shouldn't be. The government spends tons of $$$ every day (on things that are arguably far less of a concern than public safety). Okay I'll get off my soapbox now
