Its hard to tell on the a storm-centered IR image, but the Visible shows it well. You can see the cloud rotating around a central point. If you use this visible CMISS link you will see what I'm talking about.
EDIT: Bad reference graphic. Fixed for the Visual one which I was talking about this time




The northward motion is even MORE evident on that imagery!

hugh, two things. read the site rules about posting short, uninformative, one line stuff. if it looks like it belongs in a chat room, it doesn't belong here. also want to note that whenever a hurricane goes through an ERC, especially when it's not moving quickly, the process usually jars it around. i wouldn't make much of that north jog you're seeing. -HF
