Re: eyewall behavior

The radar loop confirms a northward or north-northwestward movement, but not an eastward movement. Surely an eastward movement would be beneficial to Pensacola, but it would doom quite a few other areas just to the east as well. There is the possibility for either an eastward or a westward jog at landfall, but neither is showing up right now. Satellite can be rather deceiving over short intervals, especially if the satellite "jumps" suddenly; radar data is much better to use and offers better resolution at this point in time.
