Re: Edouard Slows and Weakens Briefly, But Now Organizing Again

Looks like Edouard may become Hurricane Edouard before landfall. Following in the footsteps of Humberto last year.

Quick calculation of 61knots at Flight Level would be near 63 mph at the surface. Using a 90% reduction factor for a 700mb Flight Level.

I believe that Capt. Mitchell should be the ARWO on the next flight. As was the case last night.
