I saw it last night. Was out on our dock and saw a bright light traveling NW to SE. Last time I saw it, ISS moved SW to NE. I wasn't expecting it to be moving to SE.
Wasn't out there to look for it. I was cleaning fish.

The space station takes around 90 minutes to orbit the earth. The earth rotates under it so the exact path is offset a bit each orbit. Eventually the path will shift so far that it will come from the south to the north. In fact, I just checked and it's taking that exact same path you described.
