Re: Mesovortex

These can really be an amazing sight. Its the equivalent of having an F5 tornado within the CDO or the eyewall itself. Sometimes they are completely clear at the top - its like having a pinpoint eye within the eyewall structure. I can't recall one ever lasting for two hours though - unreal!
