This day after day of micromanaging is really getting maddening. Whenever the storm wobbles west, the LA/TX folks say it's definitely going over there. Whenever it wobbles north, suddenly it becomes a mid-Atlantic event. Let's just chill.

Yes, But it's an illusion since there are only 5 frames.

At 1 frame/ 5 min = 25 min. of movement, which makes it hard to judge the overall trend.

Well the center a few hours ago was by brandon and it was heading west. I am 13 miles nnw of brandon in new tampa. The center just passed driectly overhead of us (winds became light and variable for around an hour and are starting to kick back up) so I think it jogged nnw or is moving in a nw direction.
