Would seem to average NW over time.

Quite a big N wobble. Should help the hurricane stay on track.

Are you guys looking at satellite imagery or recon obs? Honestly I think its nearly stationary. Maybe a NW wobble. But I will decode recon to see what its heading is.

Satellite imagery can be deceiving. Also, I wouldn't put much faith in the wobbles right now due to it strengthening. We commonly see systems wobble when hurricanes rapidly intensify. I expect a wnw to nw heading after in the next few hours.
