On the latest visible loops, it seems that the eye of frances is starting to come out futher south than what it was today. Now i might be seeing things because i am tired but thats what it looks like to me.

no.... its not the eye... the eye is covered now.

Looks like dry air and perhaps some weakening to me.

you seem to be correct, maybe not to the south but look at this vapor loop.

be sure to animate, it appears the storm may be speeding up some.
