Well that does look pretty interesting.

Don't know about there being any spin there, you really can't see that with IR, and it'll be a few hours before we have enough of a visible loop to tell ...

Here's the TAFB surface analysis for this morning:

http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/tafb_latest/EPAC_latest.gif

it does show a tropical wave in that area, but the nearest surface low is well displaced to the NW. Still, with that amount of convection going on, it could pull its act together fairly quickly.

I would not be surprised to see an invest later today as long the disturbance continues to organize.
