I believe a "closed wall" is a well-defined, singular "eye": a loosely defined eye means storms winds at the eye are lower intensity.

It's got a nicely formed eye.

What does "closed wall" mean?It means that radar is showing the eye completely surrounded by a ring of thunderstorms. It also means not good. The next one down, "M", is Eyeshape Orientation and Diameter (C-circular; CO-concentric; E-elliptical). The second number is the diameter of the eye in nautical miles. So for this message, C28, means a circular eye with a 28 nm diameter. My eyes always go straight to "H", Minimum Sea Level Pressure. To get the info you need to read a vortex message go here.
