Ok looking at the various floaters at the nhc, it appears that Emily is falling apart *and* trying to make a hard right turn at the same time. What I think I'm seeing is the effect that land has on the hurricane, because it seriously looks like some sort of wall is just ahead of emily and the storm really doesn't want to go that way. I wonder if it could weaken the storm?

I'll look again in a couple hours to see if it's more than a wobble or optical effect. But I wonder if something ... odd... is taking place? Any thoughts?
