It appears as though finally the shear is acting as shear is suppose to act and slowly starting IGOR to weaken. Now down to 145 MPH but i think perhaps more telling is the NW side of the eyewall is eroding away and there is some dry air entrainment on the western side as well.

Latest shear tendency map still shows the increasing shear as of 6 Z.

Latest 6 Z models continue the theme of Bermuda in the line of fire and the East Coast spared this particular system.

From this point on IGOR should slowly continue to weaken.
