Re: 91E in EPAC
Watching the visible loop,It does like that there are two vortices out there: The one that was exposed and now located around 14N/120W and another around 12N/118.5W. Or it's an optical illusion; we'll see what the QS pass shows...

Re: 91E in EPAC
Yesterday, AnnularCane commented and I (somewhat) concurred that there were two circulations (unfortunately, the two QS passes since my comment yesterday evening were both misses; they didn't go over the area of interest.)
Watching visible imagery today from a couple of different perspectives, it looks like to me that the possible southern circulation that I suggested yesterday has become dominant. If I had to give a center position, I would suggest something just southeast of 13N/123W.
However, the agencies' positions this morning and afternoon were north of 14N; I'm not sure if that was just out of continuity or what. I'm just not seeing anything in that area now. Makes me think that they may reposition it this evening.
Interestingly this morning's UKMET forecast (posted at the end of this) did have a storm forming in a more southerly position. It's been forecasting (and at one point actually analyzed) a storm out of this since Sunday.
The 12Z GFDL and HWRF both forecasted a storm to come out of this as well, however, they are doing so out of the more northerly position.
Maybe I'm just bored and am trying to force something to happen, but I'm going to run with my competing circulation theory and suggest that this invest's woes are near an end at that a tropical depression will be classified when the first visual images come out tomorrow (so either at 11A or 5P advisory).
(Whoops, forgot the UKMET forecast)

Well, as expected, at least one of the position estimates has been relocated to the south of where it was previously. However, it's not in the position that I was looking at a couple of hours ago, but rather in yet another spot (there still appears to be a circulation in the area I pointed out, however, it would appear to not be a focus for further development). That would suggest that the possible multiple vortex problem hasn't been settled yet.
