I see the feature people are talking about, I just don't think it is an eye. It's circumstantial structure in the showers. Can you not see that the radar echoes in that feature are rotating considerably slower than the outer rainband? If an eye were to form now, it would form from the contraction of that outer rainband, not inside of it.
wxsouth said, "To back up wthrman13...there is no eye! The center of circulation is not even associated with that "eye" you claim is moving onshore in Wakulla County. The center is in the rain free area to the east of Dog/St. George Island...as can be confirmed by doppler velocity data and recon data. This storm has no eye and it doesn't have an inner core...it's not going to intensify significantly."
Then, if I understood the Weather Channel correctly, I guess that makes them wrong?
About an hour or so ago, I could have sworn I heard them say the eye was over water and he even pointed to exactly where in the gulf?
Not saying you are incorrect, but you are not in aggreance with TWC, FWIW.[/quote]
If they are calling it an eye...then I strongly disagree. The center of circulation is over the gulf...and dry air rotating in on the eastern side of the circulation gives the radar appearance of an "eye". Maybe its easier for viewers to understand if they call it an eye. It doesn't really matter in the overall scheme of things.[/quote]
I
thought they said eye, but on second thought, maybe they did say center of circulation.

To a non pro such as myself, I tend to associate those words together. At any rate, your last post has helped clarify things for me . Thanks for your explanation and inupt.
