Re: Surge

Well, the earlier well-defined large eyewall is less defined now and it looks like Ike is trying to form a smaller eyewall. The eye is becoming a little better defined on IR imagery, with very deep convection firing in the eastern semicircle.

The outer core of the storm is starting to move onshore now, so conditions should start deteriorating quickly.
