Did anyone notice the huge arc cloud that exited (and generated convection arcing outward in that dry air slot earlier? Normally, this would have caused some disruptions in a hurricane, but IMHO, in this case, Ivan just fought off the dry air intrusion, cleansed itself, and is refocusing itself around the center ...

Ivan going back up on that roller coaster ...
