This system formed on the front end of a moist MJO pahse for the W Atlantic. Maybe the MJO will be the predictor of choice this year like in 2004.

I do think it is a possibility, but what I see is that Andrea's donut is filling in with convection. It almost looks like it has two vorticies with the dominant vortex being the one to the east.

That looks like the upper center to me. It kind of looks like the lower center and upper center have seperated.
Sky if you go to the floater and install the forcast points it appears that is the center the NHC is using for tracking,so all seems to be inline with there line of thinking.I think that the system is even transitioning even further Damar,hey I might be wrong but to me with the center filling in it is looking more like a real tropical system.Have to see how it looks later this evening.Kevin

I dont see this as dead at all... not yet anyway. To me, it almost seems to be trying to reorganize which seems a bit unusual for just a subtropical system. I've seen a number of other well-educated people jumping on a few ideas that that would indicate maybe it's not dying (yet)... 1) an apparent reforming of the center east of the previous one, and 2) taking up more moisture in the COC
