Not sure if this will work for you. Open the site, then use your arrow to pinpoint the center of the storm. The coordinates will appear in your status bar. If it doesn't work, open the main site here: http://weather.msfc.nasa.gov/cgi-bin/post-goes
then click on Caribbean and West Atlantic Hurricane Region infared. Click on the area you want a closer view of and you should be able use ur pointer to see the coordinates after the map opens.
Ok, now my question. At the 10 pm the coordinates were 27.1 N and 86.1 W Is that area just to the wnw of that the center now? If that's the center, then the storm moved WNW.
Well, that didn't work for me. Try this: http://wwwghcc.msfc.nasa.gov/goesprod/ then click on Real Time Satellite Images. then go from there.

Based on the 1am advisory it's moved .4 north and .5 west

I saw that. Guess that shows how much I know, huh? LOL.
If it continues on this track, don't you think they will have to adjust the predicted landfall a little to the left? Not good with math, but if my calculations are right, and this motion holds, looks more like a landfall near Pascagoula???
