High and increasing shear to the southwest of Epsilon. IMO tomorrow it will be downgraded to a storm again.

The 5-day cone shows Epsilon on a track toward Puerto Rico:

I know, I know, it will likely be gone long before then.

It is looking better then it did 6 hours ago. Deeper convection to the northwest quad. Still a hole on the southeast. Still looks to be 70 knots...

I say that the Intensity forcasts for this storm needs to be thrown out all togiether since this thing hasn't been following any of the forcasts! They should just take it one advisory at a time and not try to forcast the intensity until it gets close to land if it does! lol
