This was from 2 hours ago, and the VDM at the time showed an elliptical eyewall. Given that the VDM just half an hour later had a "regular" circular eye, together with latest satellite trends, I think it's quite plausible that the inner eyewall has taken over.

Pressure is not part of the Saffir-Simpson Scale. Wind is the only criterion.
