Looks like no upgrade at 5am either, and the storm looks like it may be beginning an ERC (after which point it will be over steadily cooling waters) so I think Edouard missed it's opportunity to become a major hurricane. Euro no longer shows any further strengthening either.

Fresh microwave imagery indicates no signs of ERC at all

Re: ATL: EDOUARD - Hurricane - Discussion
HURRICANE EDOUARD DISCUSSION NUMBER 20
NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL AL062014
500 AM AST TUE SEP 16 2014
Convective cloud tops within Edouard's eyewall have occasionally
been as cold as about -75C, but the eye has actually cooled during
the past few hours. In addition, an 0614 UTC TRMM pass showed that
the hurricane's eyewall is partially open on the north side. The
Dvorak final-T estimate from TAFB increased to T5.5/102 kt but
decreased to T4.5/77 kt from SAB, while the CIMSS ADT is holding
steady near T5.6/105 kt. Due to the discrepancy between the various
estimates, the initial intensity is being held at 95 kt.
Analyses from UW-CIMSS and SHIPS diagnostics indicate that about 15
kt of southeasterly shear continues to affect Edouard. The shear
is expected to decrease between 12-36 hours, and since waters will
be warmer than 26C during that period, the hurricane still has a
chance to strengthen a bit. The intensity guidance has decreased,
with none of the usual hurricane models explicitly showing Edouard
reaching major hurricane strength. However, given the improving
environment, the NHC intensity forecast still allows for the
possibility of a major hurricane in the next 12-24 hours. After
that time, Edouard is expected to weaken quickly due to colder water
and increasing vertical shear. The forecast continues to show
Edouard becoming post-tropical by day 4, but the cyclone may begin
to struggle to maintain organized deep convection as early as day 3
while it's over 22C water.
The initial motion is north-northwestward, or 340/11 kt. Edouard
is located to the west of a mid-tropospheric high and will turn
northward and northeastward into the mid-latitude westerlies during
the next 24-36 hours. An eastward acceleration is expected by 48
hours, but then the cyclone is forecast to turn southeastward and
slow down on days 4 and 5 when it approaches the west side of a
deep-layer low between Portugal and the Azores. The track guidance
continues to be tightly clustered, and the updated NHC forecast
has only been nudged slightly westward during the first 48 hours to
be closer to the multi-model consensus TVCA.
FORECAST POSITIONS AND MAX WINDS
INIT 16/0900Z 30.2N 57.3W 95 KT 110 MPH
12H 16/1800Z 31.7N 57.4W 100 KT 115 MPH

Now that is has been designated per best track as a major, what are the odds that the NHC won't upgrade it to major status at 11 AM? Close to zero as posts here imply? Is it already official?

Anyway, after finally getting your point, YAY! For nearly 700 days, there haven't been any major hurricanes until EDOUARD I am just wondering why the number of posts here (or posters) is unusually low, and this storm is very much underrated and this deserves more attention than all of the stor s this year combined! Congrats Eduoard!!!!
