Right in the middle as a little pinhole.

Very small core kind of like Typhoon tracy in size of its core. Or for the Atlatnic Iris or Charley. This storm maybe big on satellite but its core is very small. Looking at the latest of that it seems that the eye was short lived but is reoreganizing. This could of been close to cat5 while that eye was happening!

Must have been a lot of simultaneous traffic, that's really impressive. Anyone know when we might see another Vortex read on this, I think it might be restrengthening.

Just wanted to note that the NRL site also lists the storm at 110kts. That equals 125mph, might we see it stronger on the 5pm advisory?
