It looks like a blob of convection in the cluster east of the center is trying to creep toward it and at this rate, it could swallow the center in a few hours

Various sat images including the one above confirm it.
I take it you haven't seen the system since last night? late last night and most of the day today it was naked it looks MUCH MUCH healthier tonight then it has in the last 20 hours.

Yea but it was way worse then that earlier, atleast it has some kind of convection instead of being a naked swirl

No...

Yall imagine it looks good just because of the convection on the SE side.

Until it begins to even give a hint of wrapping around, it's not much better than through the day.

Believe it or not it's looking better tonight. Convection continues to increase.

But maybe I'm looking at the wrong satellite but the circulation is looking less vigorous, especially on the W side.

This is because the visible Satellite is no longer available due to the sun setting over Chris.

You can say what you want but Chris looks 100% better than 12 hours ago. I don't like the looks of it now. I hope the shear does finally put an end to him.

gee talk about a storm literaly in the ER, code blue, on life support, and BAM, it's like a doctor gave him some drugs and made him feel a little better, instead of life support, he's just in the ICU right now.
