Invest 96C question

As of this posting, one of the GOES EastPac floaters was covering Invest 96C, a Tropical Depression-esque appearing area of weather a few hundred miles West-NW of the Hawaiin islands.

My question in regards to this for Ask and Tell - Do GOES EastPac floaters normally cover storms that are well within CentPac's Hurricane area, and darn near WestPac's (Jtwc) area of operations and coverage?
