That's the problem there is not a single dominant LLC with this system, its just 3-4 eddy circulations rotating around a very large broad circulation, thats not the type of set-up that will normally see an upgrade.
Precisely. There isn't any well-defined center other than the center of the broad low that has those small insignificant eddies rotating around. There is some convection to the north of the broad low now, though, a sign that shear may be letting up a bit. But this system has quite a long ways to go to become Alex. Earliest possibly tomorrow night if it could develop convection over a center and have that convection persist. But by Wednesday, the low starts moving off to the NE over cooler water.
