This is newer, but I'm not sure how beneficial sat imagery is right now.

The overheads are not in agreement with the NHC plots. Sat and radar imagery have the eye center further east and south than the NHC plots show it.

Except for Marco, which has already happened, I'm not sure the difference will have much effect either, with the outer eyewall over 100 miles in diameter. I think it's a function of the irregularly shaped clear air eye, but I just don't know what's "real" and what can safely be ignored.

If forced to choose I will go with the NHC plots over radar or satellite. They have stayed right in the pocket, under ten miles of error, for several days now.
