agree with your obs... i thought in recent views on sats... that a opening was appearing, maybe some weak sign of the eye... not sure about that just yet....i love the fact that the levell II data is in super res. mode and showing a very decent eyewall. (from KBRO) First TIME for everything... hehe. The biggest concern to me will be the FRESH WATER Flooding... i hope people take the warning and get to higher grounds... cuz with the expected rain... that area will flood for a few days.... before it flushes back into the GOM.

Recon about to make what looks like last pass through the center. and based on some data coming in.. i think the pressure is starting to drop again.. will know in a few mins

UPDATE: pressure is back to falling again... down to 980mb EYE is open on the south side... and until she cloeses the south side of the eye, she shouldn't get to much stronger.
