I recall several years ago, perhaps 2004, watching the miami radar as one storm was developing off the florida coast, and i could hardly believe what i was seeing regarding the eyewall size. it must have been 50 miles across. does anyone recall how big a system this was dimensionally, at that time? i don't recall how this system transformed .


I know Frances had the largest eye I have ever seen.
In fact at 1 point, her eye was larger than Lake Okeechobee!
