i really do not see a NORTHERLY turn, NORTHWEST yes, but not a due north turn. heading last 3 hours was 315, due NW. It is still wobling as it goes, so depending on what part of the wobble it is on, the true heading could be east or west of NW. I know the track has shifted and I feel this nw component will bring the storm to the TX/LA borderi, which is a considerable change from yesterday, but should not be a major problem for NO, but a minor one..by the way, the surf here in Pensacola Beach is REALLY awesome right now.
