    Thank you cch001 for your description. Maybe I will find more #eye-storms, so I can do an update here.

    The eye itself forms because air sinks in the middle of strong storms. Sinking air warms and the clouds there evaporate, creating the eye

    All the strongest storms have eyes. The water must be very warm and there must be little wind shear (change in wind direc./speed w/height)

    Okay. Special thanks to you for your answer. I have an other question to these storms. Which requirements must be there to develop an #eye?

    Eye storms are the strongest storms. Also, warmer eyes and colder #eyewalls (clouds surrounding the eye) indicate stronger storms

    Thank you for your answer cch001. Yes,#eye-storms are very special storms in this case.Is there a trend, what kind of storms has more power?

    Good question about SH eyes. I know that NH storms are more numerous than SH so by pure numbers you will see more NH eyes

    #Eyes have very low clouds, which are warmer than the higher clouds. Some eyes can be cloud free, so the satellite senses the ocean temp

    Looks like no southern hemisphere eyes. Are they more rare?

    Right, I will try to update the collection at any time, because these kinds of storms are my favorite.

    In these cases I want to ask a question. Always by focusing on #eye I ask myself,why a #eye-circle has a higher temper. than surround. area.
