No meteorologist, I, however

No meteorologist, I, however I believe what we are looking at is the convection that has disconnected somewhat from the Center of Circulation, as it runs into a bit of dry air.   The COC -- at least according to the NHC -- has moved every so slightly north of west.  
I know.   Looks like a southward wobble to me as well.    Stay tuned.  :D
