Re: rita delivers

Seems like that has been happening most of the evening... the eyewall will try to develop around to the E and SE side of the center, but it doesn't "stick" and the eastern part of the eyewall fragment gets tossed to the north, with a new one developing in its place. It's not really a steady-state eyewall, but rather a continually regenerating feature, at least on the eastern side. The NW side of the eyewall has been pretty steady.
