Actually, I think I'm seeing a NE drift with the carib. area of disturbed weather. Either that or the broad turning in the area is playing tricks on my eyes.
I don't think you're hallucinating at all... But what's causing the seeming drift? (if you look carefully at the visible caribbean loop, you can see the apparent low center around 15.5 N 85W or so) I'm not sure if the low center is moving east, but certainly the storms have had an eastward movement over the last 8 hours or so. Will it drag the low pressure east initially? or will the storms become decoupled from the low and new storms form around the center, and it moves north as the models predict....
