Not a full pass, but appears to have a perfect core.

It does. Especially since the colder tops have been situated to the N/NW more often.

Appears to be winding down but these EPAC storms are tricky to gauge.

Seems to be on the decline, but it's not over until its eye collapses.

Appears to be slowly fading in the sunset, but looks very pretty. What a storm.

Would've been nice if it reached Cat.5 but it did a remarkable feat of becoming a Cat.4 then dropping to Cat.1 then going back to Cat.4 once again.

If this would had gone west south of the Andres wake no doubt it would be a 5.

No way, you can be not be satisfied with a Cat 4.

I think it might be the only storm to become Cat 4, back to 1, back to 4.

If it wasn't for the ERC, this would have been a 5.

I think Cat.4's are cool, but back to back impressive strengths is pretty remarkable. Harder to pull off than getting a Cat.5.

Didn't upwelling have a lot to do with it's struggles too?

Yes. But trying to do an ERC with cool waters? Bad idea.
