Steve Lyon basically said at 5PM that the wave ate Lisa and that her center of circualtion is now where that wave was.

That may be so but her southern convection is firing up quite nicely this evening:

Those cloud tops are very cold. :eek:

That convection continues to be impressive this morning.

If Lisa degenerates into a wave and its cloudmast heads west into the islands with the same rate of rainfall which I believe which I believe it's presently generating, we're going to get flooded!

Looking at the visable loops and IR ..seems to me it is reorganizing near the convection...I don't see the naked swirl to the north that was pretty clear yeasterday..Not Good..
