[Arthur Wildfire! March]

So the eye could be Category 4?

I noticed earlier that people could see video feeds on islands where the wind was much lower. Were they in the eye?

The storm is now low end cat 3. They look for the highest wind over the water from a plane. They are still claiming 105 kt (120mph) at 5am which is mid-cat 3.

The eye can be calm, in theory with no wind at all. The highest winds are in the eyewall surrounding the eye.
