eyewall replacement is what made katrina go from a category 2 to a category 5 almost overnight 2 days ago.
Completely wrong. Eyewall replacement doesn't strengthen storms at all. Katrina went from Cat 2 to Cat 5 because of a favorable external environment.
First time I heard that, I thought the reporter was saying "drywall replacement."
