There is what appears to be a LLCC moving westward northwest of the deep convection!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But it also looks like the convection is starting to cover it :) :) :) Tell me different!

Looks like the convection has almost covered it 8-)

Looks like the spin you are talking about is away from the blowup.

It just moved back into the convection! In the next hour or two when the new quickscat comes back I think it will show it.

Nope ... the trough/wave has sharpened up a bit since yesterday, and you have to look CLOSELY at the low-levels (block out the wispy clouds), but there's still no evidence of any LL clouds moving towards the east ... (clouds across the Western Yucatan Peninsula are moving NNW to N.)

Nice link, Matthew5 ...

Now look at the latest WV imagery and what stands out today ... look at the dry air being channeled into the mid/upper low ... today, look for some very heavy convection to fire as probably another MCV will explode, and may induce some kind of SFC cyclogenesis, however, nothing "tropically-speaking" ... nevertheless, quite interesting...

The one on Alison looked the same? That spin that went back into the convection.

Circumstances that developed Allison are quite different ... this system continues to be fed by the mid/upper low (actually, could kind of say two of them working in tandem), whereas Allison, upper level ridging did build over Allison ... problem with this is that another s/w trough from the west will impede on this in the next 48-72 hours ... and there's very little or no window for this to transition ...

Oh, and what we're seeing is the beginnings of the potential MCV along a triple-point boundary...

Agree. Like I said yesterday, by the time this starts to transition to a warm-core system...the shortwave will come knocking on its door, southerly shear and all. And the upper low to the west is really stirring up some dry air to the west of it...but at the same time helping to fire up convection by increasing divergence. This isn't a tropical scenario at all and if anything will slow down that transition process.

Still not convinced...

I'm sorry for misjudging this for a tropical cyclone. I will make sure when the next area of low pressure forms to just listen to the nhc.

It looks like you're seeing a mid-level circulation. There isn't a westerly flow in the low-levels yet. As the other folks mentioned before, this system still has a way to go before any cyclogenesis will occur. By that time, a shortwave trough will be making development difficult. I will say I like the persistance of 93L. It's held up nicely, but it's still gambling against some tough odds.
