ridge still building W?

I've looked at all the models, read all the commentary, etc. But one rudimentary forecasting tool -- just looking at the WV loop -- seems to suggest to me this thing is going to come further west than expected. If you run this 12-hour loop, you see that the ridge is still expanding and building W ... the area of dry air signifying the edge of that ridge to Jeanne's N and W is now all the way across FL and into the GOMEX. The ULL/shortwave that is supposed to weaken the W extent of the ridge is riding up and over the top of it (heading NE toward Canada). This is not a w---cast, but I am sincerely concerned that the NHC track may be too far east with this turn and that anywhere from West Palm Beach through Ft. Pierce may get a direct hit from a shallower angle than currently expected.

I was saying the same thing yesterday in the evening that the wv loop is really the best forecasting tool for what's really going on now.
In fact whether it's a wobble or not a wsw wobble has taken place here in the last couple hrs, and if that continues are forecast are going to verify

Yeah, I commented in another thread that it appears the ridge is building both west and south. I'm an amatuer only, and a poor one at that. I wish we could get some of our pros and talented amatuers to chime in on this feature.
