Eye

Given the small size of the eye, what sort of impact do you think the land in mexico will have on Wilma, compared to say a large eye which we are more used to with a cat 5. This feels like unchartered territory.

Well, the eye probably won't stay small for long. Wilma is going through an EWRC right now and it looks like the new eye will be about 20nm in diameter. Of course, the new eye might shrink and be about the size of this one, but I highly doubt it.
