Here are the coordinates for the deepwater horizon site:
28.73667°N 88.38716°W
and that heavy band looks to be around generally ...24/91 although it's pretty big and spans over several lat/lon.
There are a few other tstorms farther east that are closer to the DH site, but are still several degrees lower in lat.
i'm not a pro met, but my hubby is involved with the response efforts...
