We can only hope upwelling will keep this from getting too strong if it stalls....

Definitely beginning the move northward, maybe a little east of due north, and beginning to accelerate slowly. Franklin the Fish!

if you take a look at the 18Z models, you can see that pretty much all of them have Frankling recurving out to sea and the BAM models continue their stubborn persistence with taking Franklin back SW towards the EC of Florida.

It also looked like a NW jog on radar.

Doesn't look like it is doing much of anything to me, kind of just spinning in place.

Have you looked at the long range loop out of Melbourne? The northward motion is easily visible there.

??? Pretty clear northward movement. Satellite and recon confirm it.

Nope...no eye yet. The pressures aren't near low enough (which means there's no eyewall in place) for an eye to form. Just a gap in the convection.
