Amazingly large eye for such a powerful storm, something like 70 miles
wide. I imagine that's at least partially due to or connected with the excellent outflow: all that outflow air has to pass through the eye. If the outflow was not as good, there would not be as much air passing through the eye and the eye would tighten up. -- This article was auto-posted by the ne.weather.moderated Weatherbot program.

It's huge. Is there a correlation between the size of an eye and the
strength of a hurricane? "Steve Okonski" wrote in message ... Amazingly large eye for such a powerful storm, something like 70 miles wide.

Usually the smaller the eye, the higher the peak winds. It's sort of
like when a skater pulls her arms in, she spins faster. Isabel is not playing by these usual rules. Perry wrote: It's huge.

That's what I thought, Steve, but I wasn't sure. It's interesting that
there can be exceptions like this. "Steve Okonski" wrote in message ... Usually the smaller the eye, the higher the peak winds. It's sort of like when a skater pulls her arms in, she spins faster.

This is much less the exception for Pacific hurricanes/typhoons - occurs much more often with them, and strong ones also. They also have more ocean to travel and are more persistent. I don't have a clue why, though it does seem to be more common the longer storm has been strong. Atlantic hurricanes usually don't stay strong as long - they seem to eventually encounter wind shear (as Isabel is now doing) and other things. -- This article was auto-posted by the ne.weather.moderated Weatherbot program.

How interesting. Is there less wind shear on the west coast, then?
