Last 2 QuickScat passes

going out on a limb.....think a new center at the surface has formed in the new convection to the south....i think i see pretty good signs of reformation....if this trend holds then there is a good chance of TS status today.....shear will be lighter and less dry air near the storm......oh yeah, warmer waters too 
plus a shift of initial track.....

Negative on new center
|
|
The center is between the two burst of convection and Irene looks like a tropical storm now on satellite, with convection wrapping very near the center. If you streamline the pattern, you'll clearly note the center between the two bursts. I do note the due west movement, and I suspect you'll see a shift in the forecast track though NHC as long as I can remember never radically jumps from it's current track in one advisory.

Looks to me like some rotation starting.
