To me...and this is just my uneducated opinion based on the KBRO radar imagey...the inner eye feature appears to be rotating around within the larger outer eyewall structure...

Hard to say for sure...but that sure looks that way to me...

I'm seeing that as well. This is rotating around the larger eye wall feature. Makes center fixes a pain

I see what looks like SW movement -- but it could be what you just described. Emily's got to get one last loop in before landfall.

I agree, I noticed the same thing myself. Looks like the overall storm is nearly stationary and the inner eye is rotating around inside the larger envelope

Looks like the structure threw a rod.


If I didn't know better I would think I was looking at an intensifying storm that just took a big load of Dynomat and dried up in a big open slot throwing the storm out of whack.


That's it for further intensification!

As I told those in Teamspeak.. imagine the inner eye is a marble.. and the concentric eye as a bowl... spin the bowl ..what will happen.. the marble will start spinning around in the bowl.. but at a different speed. This is almost like what we are seeing.

If you watch the concentric eye it is still moving west while the inner eye moves around inside it. If you watch the inner eye the movement is deceiving.. so watch the concentric eye instead...

On the latest satellite pics it looks like she might be starting to move toward the coast.

One thing's nearly for certain at this point: Jim Cantore ain't gonna get to see the show.

Looks like she is finally inland and heading west. She sure took her time getting there.
