LLC looks better this morning, especially QuikSCAT.

And, ADT showing convection firing inside the outer bulls-eye.

However, core temp is a mess with a asymmetrical hot spot in the boundary layer.

Still no anti-cyclone overhead.

SHIPs shows shear at 13-knts.
Now looks like shear forecast is not favorable for big development.

If Danny wants to get strong and beat shear, he'll need a good hot-tower to fire off.
Water is warm enough for it to happen.
Need to watch and see.
