That dark halo around Harvey is high pressure. High pressure is dry air. Harvey has reached a 'static' equilibrium. It resolves the dry air by syphoning wet air from the ITCZ. There is also a 'street' starting to form in mimic of Harvey offshore North Carolina. Air will do that. It is fluid and will act in duplicate of other air movement.

That street of vortexes may be the resolve of Harvey if there is enough heat transfer into the Atlantic Ocean that resolves the central pressure of Harvey. If the second vortex moves over land the dynamics may become more static rather than destabiling. It has the potential to stabilize over land all the way to the Mid-Atlantic states. If the second vortex stabilizes over land, it is another Harvey over a large metropolitan area that are on a good day, heat islands.
Ultimately, it is the movement of the sun that will resolve the storms in what is looking like a worse case scenario.
