Yep. It's clearly moving. Either NW or a hair to the left of NW.

No idea what you're looking at or where you think the center is.

It seems to have slowed, maybe that ULL is the reason.

I agree if you are looking at the center it's still moving and more so NW now.

I can see that center as clear as day in it seems to be moving northwestward! A small eye has formed in this thing is bombing!

I think its moving more WNW than northwestward, but it is moving slightly more NW than it was earlier.

Technically 305 is closer to NW than WNW.

As for the 'eye'... that's just a warm patch of clouds as Charley tries to reorganize himself, which he definitely needs to do if he's going to become a solid CAT2.

Well if it is moving NW it should pass right between the two Cayman Islands. Lets see if it does :wink:

At a heading of 305, it'll be close, but I'm confident. It'll be a good thing too, to spare Grand Cayman the worst.
