Re: The biggest hurricane in the entire solar system

Within the post itself there does not appear to be any contradiction since the post also mentions that "Jupiter's Great Red Spot ... does not have the eye and eye-wall that mark out a hurricane." However there is contradiction amongst scientists regarding that point, i.e., some still consider Jupiter's Great Red Spot to be a hurricane and that the eye and eyewall cannot be visually observed because of higher layers of gaseous clouds.
