Outflow is still a problem in the NW quad.
I think this is also a Cat 5.

IR superimposed with microwave imagery does show that the circulation is actually centered up in the convection pretty nicely, so it actually does have some decent organization to it. The biggest minus remains that it is still dealing with the outflow of mothership Meranti. It's almost free though.
