The text below is from the site at the link pasted above. Is it true there
is a gap in the data he was looking for? And is this pentagonal structure of
the eye of a hurricane common?
There are some splendid pictures on the site but his ideas seem a
little extreme... any thoughts?

Seeking the official Government source for this astonishing Ivan imagery, I
naturally turned to NOAA (sometimes called "the wet NASA" -- the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration). NOAA displays the daily output on
its dozens of websites of, among other spacecraft, a veritable "fleet" of
"stationary" GOES weather satellites, watching our planet "24/7' from 22,300
miles out .... If the network ran the promo all day on the 10th, I
calculated, they must have used the most recent NOAA daylight imagery from
the previous afternoon - as the "eye" was clearly under afternoon
illumination in the "loop." That meant the images had to have been
collected on the afternoon of the 9th. or, from an earlier afternoon that
same week.

As expected, when I looked, the striking Ivan "eye" geometry was NOT present
on any geosynchronous archived NOAA imagery from the 10th. But, when I
looked in the expected archive for the 9th, I was confronted with another
puzzle: a conspicuous "gap" in the Ivan "special products" for that date.
Close-up Ivan imagery from September 9th was curiously . missing.
