I think the eye is going to look just as good if not better then it did a few days ago later tonight. In I think the pressures will get down in the upper 920"!

Pressure down to 945, not good. Only a matter of time before the winds respond.

945 mb translates to around 140 mph which is stronger than she was when she was a Cat 4.

she's forecast to, theres little shear, SSTs are way up there and there is no upwelling to speak of. I htink Frances is going to make htis a year to remember, not just charley. Hold on tight, or get the hell out of there if you live in central Florida.
