no jog moving to the west maybe at 14mph now winds should be 110 att 11: from NHC




Looks like the NW jog that I saw was immediately followed by a SW jog. Could have been alignment of the images. Looks like there is a small break in the SE eyewall right now, but that's probably temporary.
Forecast landfall is 140mph (120 kts).. with peak intensity at 145mph (125 kts).

I think I'll stay clear of the Louisiana coast just to be safe, even though it is forecast to level Houston.
