Re: Double Eyewall?

Quote:

Tom Terry of Channel 9 is talking about a double eyewall. Can someone explain what this means?



He's talking about the ERC (Eyewall Replacement Cycle) that Phil has been talking about. Basically, the eyewall is being rebuilt, which seems to be resulting in a smaller eyewall, which may result in a stronger storm. She's running out of water to strengthen in, however.
