They have spoken, yesterday 11:00 AM from NHC:

"IT IS SOMETIMES MORE PRODUCTIVE TO TRACK THE OVERALL DISTURBANCE THAN THE CIRCULATION CENTER ITSELF...IN THIS CASE IGNORING THE CIRCULATIONS THAT HAVE FORMED...MOVED MORE WESTWARD...AND THEN DIED...ONLY TO BE REPLACED BY NEW CENTERS TO THE NORTH. "

When the convection redeveloped this morning... the low level center
slowed down in response. Smoothing through the stop-and-go motion
during the past 12 hours or so yields an initial motion of 285/10.
The new official forecast is basically an update of the previous
advisory... and there is a little more confidence in this track now
since some of the models that were eastern outliers this morning...
such as the UKMET and NOGAPS... have shifted westward.
Therefore... models are coming into better agreement that a system
of moderate tropical storm strength will move west-northwestward
along the southern periphery of the lower/mid level subtropical
ridge. The slow motion shown at the end of the official forecast
is indicative of the great uncertainty late in the period...when
the spread in the models is still quite significant.

It should be noted that while the surface center is a bad inti by the ECMWF..the 850mb center was initialized in the correct spot.
