Interesting point. It was only a couple miles wide at one point and then as it passed over Florida the eye was almost 50 miles across.

May have been larger then that

Maybe more like 60 or 70

Doesn't it look like, from this loop, that the center of the eye made landfall closer to Everglades City than Cape Romano?

I found this really interesting. We lost power, telephone and cable as the eye passed us in the Keys. For some, this hurricane was much worse than Georges which used to be the worse in the last 20 years according to my inlaws who lived here for that period.

I saw my dock under about 1.5 feet of surge for the first time since we built the house six years ago. The surge at my house (Niles Channel, Summerland Key) was about 5.5 feet above mean high tide which does not affect me much fortunately. However, most others were less fortunate. The highest surge that I have heard of yet was 5 feet above ground level.

Anyway, thanks for posting this. I never got to see it since we lost all our communications during that time period.
