Does anyone else see a more northward jog in the last 6 frames?

Looks like the due west period is over.

Maybe a little bit of northernly jog, but not much that I see without zooming in so tight that everything looks like little boxes.

It does 'look' to be expanding. I was thinking earlier this evening that despite it's symmetry, outflow, etc.. it is still rather small in diameter. Kinda like how Charley was small and powerful. I live in Gainesville Fl and we did not receive hardly a rain cloud from Charley because of it's size.

50 mph and barely any northern movement at all? needs another recon.

Avila issued it. So there's no surprise there. Probably won't be much change at 5 either unless recon is in. He could even go weird with the track and lower the intensity forecast (he's done it before).

oh sorry for the movement, and distance I got those numbers from watching the weather channel and couldn't get everything down excatly before they went to commercial. I think Recon is leaving in the morning for Dennis isn't it?
