    Is there #storm-2-storm-interaction

    I thought about that for a second, but I decided it was too nice and round.

    Whoa, when did that show up?

    Seeing a clear circulation and a cloud pattern flattened on one side tells me it's #shear-storm

    Hmmmmm, my gut tells me this is a #shear-storm

    It appears I would get outvoted on this if we were all classifying it 😃

    With another cyclone to the far lower right of the image, Fujiwara effect would take over. This then suggests embedded center, I believe.

    Center is near SW edge of the convection. Sheared TCs don't have to have flattened convective regions. Often they are round while developing

    Yes, I think the low-level clouds in the gray colors suggest a center WSW of the blob, perhaps just nestled under the pinkish color?

    Yes, now that you point it out, I believe you're right. I had originally pegged the ctr further into the convection.
