Yeah, I saw a stairstep northward perhaps .1 to .2 degrees, but the westward motion has resumed.

There was a woble WNW between 15:15 Z and 16:45 Z.

Overall motion looks about the same as it was this morning to me.

She gained 0.8 degrees latitude beween 60W and 65W - from 19.5N to 20.3N.

Overall, the motion still looks pretty much west to me as well. I'm not buying into that sharp north shift just yet....

Someone please explain to me and others what exactly is supposed to happen to cause the turn & why aren't all the models in agreement. Don't they all have the same info ??
