From 15 kts to 8 kts it has slowed down and that may allow for convection to wrap around but the mass of convection of it is still to the south of the low that it is seen exposed and elongated due to some north shear and time is running out as it gets closer to the gulf coast unless it stalls and that would be another story.

It is looking the best it's looked this AM. Convection seems to be on the increase and I wouldn't be surprised to find the low re-organize under the convection now to it's east and south. We may have seen the mid-level swirl out run the low at the surface just as the convection took off and it's now under the convection. Time will tell today.

The shear that existed north of the center of the system in the Gulf has decreased in the last several hours.
