No reason to change prediction. This storm has behaved nearly exactly as expected. MS/AL border as a cat 1.

Hahaha, ROBIM! 
I've been staring at loops for so long and I still can't figure out where the center is. One loop it looks like it's headed due north, another loop looks like might have just crossed 85.
And another loop, all I see is a big red/purple blob headed towards the west coast of Florida...closer to the coastline than I would like.
Can anyone tell me what the heck where the center actually IS? Is it a jog to the west? Heading North still?
I'm throwing in the towel on this one!

I believe it may be either on 85 or just crossed over it. It is still fairly broad, so it depends on where in the center you decide to call it.

i been watching the lastest vis, and i think she just threw out another swirl in the last few hours and looks like she is trying to get another center up under the convection to the ene of the center. Storms fired up this morning to ene of center but now have weakened, cloud tops have flattened and appears she is up to something now....holding her own. I just have a hard time thinking the dry air over on the west side of her will weaken enough for to much more strengthening, but the ships model calls for it, so will see. Then again its JUNE in the GOM...will have to see
GOES-EAST Visible - Storm Relative scroll down and check out the Goes East St. Rel...appears that the RSO will stay with severe weather today in plains

if you look at a high definition visible loop...you can see the center clearly, and also see clouds head somewhat circular closer to the center...kinda wrapping around itself......

The center is more or less a conglamoration of all of the little vortices spinning about...probably three in total, one that has been really visible on the SW side of the storm this morning. The broad center is probably just east of 85W and just south on 25 N. If one of them could ever take over or they converge into one true center, we could see some development of the storm. Otherwise, in a weaker state it will remain.

That center is too broad to evolve into a hurricane; unless storms fire up in the SW quadrant and the vortex decreases in size; then, I agree it would have a good shot at hurricane 1 status.

Watching cloud patterns off the Gulf for sometime now I think it is very likely it could sway more easterly and suprise us.

Yes...I believe the one at 25/85 appears to be taking over and moving NNW to NW. Looks to be wrapping around nicely as well.

With all this talk about multiple centers and vorticies...Take a look at the 06Z . It so far has been one of the only models to show this more northerly path into the southern gulf...Plus it shows about 3 little centers inside one larger area of low pressure. I believe the may actaully have a good handle on this system now. Everyone should take a look. Its more or less exactly what is taking place. http://moe.met.fsu.edu/cgi-bin/gfdltc2.c...;hour=Animation

look at floater and it looks like she is trying the get the center under the storms to the ene. the swirl that was visible this morning was thrown out toward the sw and looks to have faded.
trying to get her act together, but will the dry air to the west let her?

Do you guys see the center at 25/85 taking over right now. It sure looks that way. If it is, then it appears to have started moving NNW/NW.
