At 24/19Z, an unclassified tropical cyclone (probably a Tropical Depression) moved ashore at Cabo Rojo, Mexico, south of Tampico. The low level circulation was evident near 21.1N 97.6W at 24/20Z.

I am still noticing a flare up of convection in the area you have pointed out. There looks to be spin right along the coast drifting slowly northward, likely being pulled by the large upper-low to the north. Could it move back into the GOM
by rounding the base of the upper-low, or not?

No, not very likely. At 24/23Z the center had moved inland near 20.9N 98.5W.

Center still weakly defined near 21.2N 99.0W at 25/01Z. With the center well inland, further development in this area is nil.

It turns out that you were correct. During the night the low center drifted back to the east and at 25/12Z it was back at the coastline at 21.0N 97.6W - or just about the exact location that it first went ashore at yesterday afternoon. Wind at Tampico continues out of the ENE at 12-15 knots. The area has now been tagged as Invest 99L with almost no chance of development since the center is still over land.
Added: At 18Z the center has drifted northwest and was over land at approximately 21.6N 98.3W.
