Doesn't eyewall replacement indicate a change in direction also?

Eyewall replacement doesn't indicate a direction change.

Yep, definately a replacement now...wasn't one at all yesterday despite claims to the contrary.

Boy, just when the outflow improved greatly, it has to replace an eyewall.

It SHOULD really blow up overnight tonight.
