When storms make landfall, they don't just immediately weaken or weaken rapidly (unless in the case of say, Lili, they were already falling apart due to eyewall replacement, excessive shear, etc.)

Yes, but it is now stated that both opal in 1995 and Lili in 2002 were about to begin to re-intensify.

As the case that has point out with Andrew, a TC that is undergoing rapid intensification likely will reach peak intensity shorly after landfall. I just wonder how strong Andrew might have gotten if Flordia didn't get in the way......MGC
