I was kinda wondering that too. I'm not too familiar with hurricanes - but I wonder if it'd be possible for a hurricane to ramp itself up too quickly before landfall - and therefore be unable to sustain itself?

Anyone out there know?

Not really, but hurricanes do weird things.

Now, it could undergo an eyewall replacement, which would weaken it, but this storm has not been hurt too much by the cycles. It even gained strength with some pretty crappy eye structure today if you can believe that!
