This shows that there is a very large area of cat3 winds...With a max wind of 112 knot on the northern quad.

If that data is accurate to landfall Vero Beach should be the worst affected area...

Wow, go here and look at each time for the last 2 days. If you look at the col02deg.png files under each time, it shows that Jeanne significantly intensified approaching FL (if I'm reading this right). Also it looks like the drop in pressure throughout the day didn't strengthen the max winds as much (until near landfall) as it widened the area of strong winds.

Actually the windfield for Jeanne is more balanced than the one for Ivan. Notice the higher winds on the E side, hence the damage much greater on the E side than on the W. Jeanne's windfield is much more balanced.

The data was from 11:30pmEST. Those winds probably came across Vero already...

That wide windfield far from the eye is exactly like Frances. It is a peculiarity of a cyclone over the Gulf Stream encountering drier air to the west...

Jeanne reverted back to that raggy donut from two nights ago...

FYI:

Go to this URL and click the Operational folder for their windfield maps of many storms the last 2 years.
