"Eventually the outer eyewall replaces the inner one completely and the storm can be the same intensity as it was previously or, in some cases, even stronger."

That's only if conditions remain status quo. Since the storm is now moving over land, it will only weaken at this point as it's deprived of warm water.

I am focused more on the fact that eyewall replacement was responsible for Katrina's almost immediate intensification from a Category 2 to a Category 5 storm while out in the Gulf.
