I dunno bout an eye, but certainly looks interesting. Though its not out of the ordinary for strong TS to have eyes on radar. Plenty have had eyes, Barry, Gaston, Claudette. They were all in the same boat as Arlene intensity wise. At least it gives us something to look at.

Correct. Well maybe more Northwest. Remember when your looking at a long range radar it is often moving more north than it appears. In fact long range radars do not show the intensity of Thunderstorms correctly at such log distances.
