She's a fighter, but cooler waters will win out, shes still in waters in the high 70s I believe, and Epsilon strengthened in those conditions.

Epsilon was a weak hurricane in high shear and waters around the low to mid 70's.

similar but upper air temps over Epsilon were actually very low at the time so it could get away with lower SST's as the net lapse rates were still pretty similar as to what they'd normally be in the tropics, also shear was at higher lvels, Epsilon was a shallow system and so missed the worst of it it seems.

it looks like it might be turning NE now... definitely looking unhealthy on IR. still an impressive visible though, some convection is trying to refire on the east side of the center.

I measure a movement toward 041 deg. from 1725Z-1825Z. That would be NE. Speed 12.5 kts.

That's an indication of increasing SW-W winds aloft. Core appears to be spreading out, too, a sign that the transition to ET may be starting.

Definitely looks like the center is becoming exposed again. I wouldn't be surprised if they lowered the intensity to 40 or 35 kt at 8 PM, although I doubt they will, since it's an intermediate advisory and all.

They also measured a 56mph wind on the surface right before they left . . . which almost supports an upgrade.
