That is a FANTASTIC loop.
Heading due west with N and S wobbles.

You can see the CDO really wrap in the last few frames this thing is a beast!

If you really want to see why this storm is going to turn, then look at the loop, and then turn the animation speed as fast as it will go. You will see a high pressure in the way, so it has no choice to turn.
