She sure looks that way too me but then

just may be my tired eyes.

Looks like she wants to take a jog to the nw. Also her eye is starting to come back.

It looks pretty consistent to me, but the last frame could show a hint of it. Hard to tell.

It's amazing no one has noticed her forward speed slowing the last few hours. Is everyone too absorbed with what direction she is moving in? Now as a stated before this may be temporary.

If she is slowing down,it mostly likely is signaling a turn.Systems don't make turns at the same speed .They slow down first. If shes going to go more northward,this is the time.Otherwise its Mexico all the way

We may have a GOES problem. No new images for over an hour.
