The official forecast indicated that Bertha might start to wander around, but it mentioned it at day 4-5, not today... which is why the apparently shift in track surprised me a bit. Obviously you're right, it's too early to say it's a definate change in motion, but it's a bit disturbing nonetheless. If the ridge does indeed build back, that increases the uncertainty with Bertha, in my book.
