Are these satellite images normal?

Greetings...

I was checking out the GOES East Satellite Imagery loops for each sector and couldn't help but notice, that it looks like the land is shifting to the left from the boarders. I was just wondering if this is normal.

I had taken notice of this yesturday and thought it was due to the satellites repositioning. But that was just for one sector. Today as I saw this shift again I was wondering if it was happening to other loops and I saw it was doing the same thing.

Here's some of the loops:
West Coast Loop
SouthEast Loop
NorthAtlantic Loop

I saw it a happening a bit towards the top in the
Alaska Loop

But I don't see it in the
Hawaii Loop

Could this just be satellite repositioning? Thanks for taking a look.

I'm not sure I see what you are referring to...

But, then again, satellite imagery is not my area... Anyone?

Greetings Loam,

I took these screen shots of the visible loop earlier today just in case this happened:

I drew some arrows pointings in the direction I saw it shift.

I would say that it's not so much that the land is shifted to the left, but rather the computer generated graphic overlays are mis-registered and shifted to the right.
