Camille (I hate even comparing this storm to it, but...) had an eye diameter of 12 miles at landfall. I'm sure there are plenty of contra examples, but it was something I remember as being noted about it.... You could be right though, I'm sure the mets will chime in, (or move the post someplace out of the way of everyone trying to keep caught up on the storm

I had forgotten about his site. Excellant site. And I hate to use the Camille comparison also.
It's just so uncommon, rare to have the stats this close together. Downright scary too!~danielw
