Just an observation....

but the latest quickscat of TD 1

http://manati.wwb.noaa.gov/dataimages21/cur/zooms/WMBas19.png

seems to indicate that the better defined center is well south of the latest NHC position.

Looking at the Dvorak IR loop

http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/PS/TROP/DATA/RT/float-bd-loop.html

You can pick out a weak center up around 32n, but there also appears to be one under the stronger convection down around 27 or 28n and this would agree with what quickscat shows.

Also 90L seems to be hanging in there tonight around 24/90, will be interesting to see if this trend continues through the night and tommorow. Quickscat missed 90L but an earlier one still showed a pretty well defined circulation north of the Yucatan.
