Instead of guessing, next time go to the GOES website, and then click on the center of the storm, then on the zoomed picture, place your mouse over the eye and read the status bar at the bottom of your screen, and you'll see the coordinates of the eye (this is not exact, but pretty close). In this case, you'll see the eye is near 15/73.3
