It'll be interesting to see what recon comes back with. Does anyone know if these are truly the coordinates of the recon or is it possible that they just haven't updated the recon info (destination) on NOAA??
From NOAA: Quote:

Just wondering why they'd send recon in approximately 34.5 mi. south of where they've estimated the COC to be? Any info would be appreciated.
