What is the possibility of this having a CoC relocation further SW???

Zero. All of the convection is weighted east. A relocation southwest would be out of any convection, and not possible unless there is a huge blowup of convection there.

Recon is going to come in for at least one more pass soon. We will see if the convection over the center has helped lower pressures again.

Recon shows a 3-4mb drop in pressure between passes. The blow-up of convection right over the center has done some work. Has to persist and grow to keep strengthening.

Another little jog to the west northwest again.
The over radar signature is improving. Still plenty of time wash out or blow up, maybe both. Wind field definitely expanding.

[stormhunter7]

Anyone have last dropsonde data? Is that 73kts at surface (1007mb)?

Impressive winds on the dropsonde. This could be approaching hurricane strength after all. The pressure on the dropsonde was also 1002mb.

It’s got quite the high pressure for a strong tropical storm/minimal hurricane but that’s probably because of the higher than normal environmental pressures

For once, the cloud tops are colder over the center than in the cluster of storms to the south and east. Convergence may finally be maximized at the center.
