Miami WSR-88D radar shows that Frances has developed a large eye of
about 70 nmi in diameter. Satellite images suggest that the cloud
pattern is a little better organized and recon suggests that an
eyewall may be forming. However...initial intensity continues at 90
knots and because the hurricane has about 12 to 18 more hours over
warm waters and the shear may relax...there is an opportunity for
strengthening before landfall.
An eye has formed. Eyewall may be forming.
