question for the experts about wv loops

[timNms]

I know there is a similar thread to this one, but it has so many pages I wasn't sure if anyone would read my post lol.
This post is NOT intended to cause an argument!!

To my untrained eyes, it appears that the ridge to the east of Florida may be building eastward into the gulf. I also see what appears to be an upper low(?) at around 60w and 20n. That feature appears to be moving toward the southwest. My question is this. Wouldn't these two features tend to steer Dennis more toward the WNW as he gains lattitude? On the loop, there appears to be a trough across central Georgia into the gulf off the Louisiana/east Texas shore. Wouldn't this feature then pull Dennis back toward the ene if it doesn't lift out?

Here's the links:

On the last link, it appears that the ridge is building eastward and northward.

Regardless of what the models are saying now, my feeling is that they will trend west again, then east again, then back west again.....get the picture? I don't think we'll really know where Dennis is going until about a day out from landfall. Then we should have a better idea as to where he'll decide to make landfall.
