The Pacific system is Nora and is heading north. The eye could be moving quickly by displacing over hotter waters. The coast is receiving higher surf now. The Coast Guard needs to be careful. The coastal waters are warmer than the gulf waters. The image below is the most current and is nearly three hours after the image below it. If the "near-shore" system is developing that fast, it will make landfall before the eye in the gulf. The gulf eye and the nearshore eye appear to have the same velocity.
