First welcome to storm2k.But what you are seeing is the general west track that it has taken for more than 2 days but it has wobbled to the south and to the north however the general motion is west 275 degrees at this time.

Actually, it has traveled in a very shallow, counter-clockwise arc over the last 12 hours. I zoomed in on my IR loop over the system and plotted the lat lines at every one degree. My best approximation based on the center of the eye put the center at 21.75N 12 hours ago, then 21.85N 6 hours ago, then back to 21.80 at 11pm.

It is very subtle, but it showed up nicely in the loop - good enough that I used it on the air.
