The system seems to be moving east- north east. Does anyone else see this? When should it turn north?




The system itself isn't moving NE...the blowoff and thunderstorms are...the core rotation is displaced well to the south and west very near the coast of Honduras...in fact in the last few sats you can see new convection firing in this area. The NE motion you see is the ventilation of the system by the jet to the north, not the motion of the circulation.
