#eye,
Classified as an #eye
#embedded center with an #eye forming
strong #embedded storm.
#pinhole-eye
looks as an eye is forming, still classified as #embedded
pinghole-eye
nice convection!
looks as an early stage of eye formation.
multiple storm cells on this image classified as #curved-band
calssified as an #embedded-center with false eye
Hi ,Struck, It could be the good choice!!
not so easy storm to classify, shifting from "curved-band to shear and back, then between #embedded bact to #curved-band
looks as an eye is on its way;
is it a storm on this shot, I don't think so even ih one can see some circulation with white clouds.
a real #pinhole-eye
quoted as #curved-band,
quoted as #pinhole-eye
#embedded center but is this white formation hiding an eye?
But obviously , I was wrong. I'm too much what we say in french an " 4 pieces hair cutter" 😄
I thought classidying as an #eye was a bit overclassing even if I saw the pinhole
very intersting image quotesd as #curved-band if you considere the N.E. formation to freshly break loose from central one;
Two storm cells on this image,roughly same strength,remains from main storm if you gu=ive a look to full data sequence.
Classified still as #embedded even if it could be a #pinhole-eye
on the western part of thi image, is it a new storm or remnats from Katrina?
the real stoarm is on the upper left part of this data.
#pinhole but an #eye still;
Classified as a #pinhole #eye storm, even if eye is still forming
looking as several storm cells on their way to merge;
marked as an #embedded-center, circular cold cloud structure at the center made my choice;
very strong #curved-band
one can see the eye in formation in this #embedded image,quite close to an pinhole-eye
huge mass of cold clouds in this #curve-band
#pinhole-eye with huhe dold clouds, almost 3/4 of cloud mass
really a #pinhole #eye
Even if not very powerful, this storm gets an Dragon's like shape on this image! Clearly a #curved-band storm.
I4ll wait impatiently for your comments
a very strong curved band if I refer to the huge cold blue cicular clouds, i was doubtful about my classi fication but the band does exist
Image displayed here is different from thr image to classify which was really at the edge of camera and uneasy to classify;
interesting: ustbeside the center , one can see an orange spot , may be sign of an eye forming.
I've classified it as #embedded center considering the circular cold clouds of center storm
Classified as an #eye because of the tiny orage spot at the center of blue circular cold xlouds.
So, I found the southn. eest one more appropriate with wiind directio
Classified as an embedded type, but find the center was a biit tricky since the two blue circular clouds were about the same..;
Really a #pinhole-eye
Not so easy to spot storm center!
classified too as an #embedded storm image.
Classified as an #embedded storm imaage
very close to an #eye, but stilll strong#embedded storm
Nicely formed #pinhole-eye
a real weird image when you think about.
As somebody from science team wrote: image of death.
Should have been a powerful storm with these huge and wide cold clouds surroundings the eye.
Despite tail-like orange band, I've classified it as an embedded center storm.
I've classified it as an eye, thinking the eye is just under cold layer (before reading previous comments) really interesting
Everything4s ready to install its eye.
It's an image shot after a post-tropical stage, but i was hesitant between them. Thanks 😃
Classified as "#no-storm"
Interesting vie with several cold cloud cells.
Thanks, that's a pattern I already met.
unable to classify properly this image, storm spotted at one o'clock, most part out of view.( Please do not hesitate to correct my english)
classified as #no-storm.
nice image of a #shear-storm
I don't mind cch001, may be a suggestion for the tecnical team to change hashtags colour since blue letters can bardly be read?
Nothing to add after so skilled comments; 😄
I've wrongly classified it as an #eye, it's a curved-band kind of storm
#pinhole-eye,
This powerful #eye has quite a "blue ribbon" showing it's strength!
I classified it ans a strong #eye storm, the tool yu mention is a real pleasure to work with.😃
Another case with a blue cold band side by side with main structure of this #eye storm; band which vanished later on
another#pinhole!
#pinhole-eye, strong circular cold clouds
interesting image with two main cold cells in this #curved-band storm, what will them do?
That's a real #pinhole eye, featuring a very cold eye!
classified as an #eye
No, they don't, it's as an eye begun to form but failed and vanish
#post-tropical as most of images shot out from southern part of this storm back over indian ocean after churning through Madagacar mainland
same question: strong #curved-band with false eye or eye; my take is #curved =-band
#false-eye on this image I guess, quite tricky since previus image seems to be an #eye
Storm center seems to be located in pink area, north from main orange band of this #curved-band storm
Was two storms in one! First time I encounter such an image.
I've classified it as #embedded 😃
Interesting feature with this circular cold spot NW of #eye on a warmer spot
#curvedband, with circular hot srtucture south of center.
#false-eye, just South of storm center
Thanks
Sill classifiedd as an #eye storm, this one too should move up sea as a giant roller-coaster
Not an easy task to spot the center! I'm reslly still xondering about.
May be a bit overclassed as #eye, but it's forming
Thanks for these informations very useful to improve storms classifying and understanding
It was images of the storm fading away , some classified as #post-tropical, some as #no-storm
2005, year of powerful storms over Mexican gulf, this one with 155kt sustained winds;
I'm fond of jokes, in my job (going with medicine) they are sometimes dark! 😄
I think I've done it as embedded
on this image, I've considered the eye been in formation as a false-eye; following image on the set showing eye completed.
Same questtion as previously: classified as #post-tropical but not really happy about it.
classified as #post-tropical but wondering about it.
second #giga-eye, I've found since beginning with storms datas.
Thanks, this kind of images are still an uneasy choice for me to do!
Getting access to storm pages would be an real improvement, helpul to classify properly storms .
Looking at storm page shows structure evolving slowly toward an #eye after several false-eyed stages.
and loose their strength passing over colder waters or simply when they land and consequently energy fueled by warm water is lost.
I read article in french edition of Scientific American, explaining how cyclones are fueld by warm sea waters,
Despite hot spot, classified as a strong #embedded-center
#curved-band with #false eyes
gives quite a challenge to be classified . Jean-Maurice
but my english language need some improvement to tell it properly. these kind of images, sitting between shear and embedded
Thanks for your analysis , helps me a lot to have better understanding, roughly it was my way of thinking
When you look at storm page , you can see it's evolution from shear to eye. Following image of these 6 shaped as first tutorial image as eye
I'm not very confident with my classification as #shear!
#false-eye, following images full of them.
#post-tropical, the swirl made up my mind.
Thanks for your comments 😃
#curved-band sounds well for me.
#no-storm
Hot spot just eye forewarning , so classified as embedded
real "edgy" images
That's too a difficult choice for me: post-tropical or still #curved-band? This set of image gave me some trouble to find out.
Classified as #shear, but not very satisfied whith it....
Until know, I believe it's my only encounter with a 160kt storm.
another interesting pattern with this semi-circular hot spot , central on this image forming another eye with this extremely powerful storm
twin blue cold circular patterns on this image, my take as center is the western spot with a better formed circular cold cell.
Following images on storm pages shows more false eyes
classified as #no-storm, storm pages shows the litle orange spot at 4 o'clock forming a new storm followinr an SE/NW axis
#pinhole-eye, and a tiny pinhole;
and where is the real #eye there?
and on following image forming just another hot spot before disappearing;
an eye side by side with a hot spot
following image of ACC0001lvfu, then eye evolving toward an hot spot.
Thanks, I was very hesitant with these images,
hot spot is there , predicting an eye formation has seen in storm page. So, I've classed it as a strong #embedded
Could be an interesting discussion, very useful as a learning tool.
from this image being a part of the original one while the northern system seems independant fro the original system.
looking to the storm page, it begins with a storm evolving toward a strong embedded type, then fading away;the southern curved-band
the whole system spins clockwise,some grey swirls stands West.What to classify?My take was the north one
to the North , what looks as an #eye, pinhole-eye forming with usal circular cold clouds while to the South a hot clouds band is seen;
Not an easy goal to classify this storm, and the full set of images displayed are roughly on the same pattern:
Thanks both of you
Real #eye or false eye?
These discussion are full of teachings , Stuck' graphics and Shock comments shows the ways to reason with storms and progress . Thanks
Cat's eye is a pretty and poetical class, so fast changing as they focus on a prey or widen with anger!
Following one too!
almost as good an image as tutorial for #shear
may be slightly overclassed as an #eye
A really interesting challenge as you say, quite enough tricky for a begiiner as I am.
one center fading away .Jean-Maaurice bretarn 😃
Hi, shocko61, I encoutered some patterns close to this one, in some cases, the two centers merged, but most cases saw ....
Storm page shows two cloud cells joining and spliting as on this image.
some kind of a #shear?
I think the hot spot is an "would-be eye", storm page shows structure never evolving toward a real eye, then my take was #embedded
Another interesting image with an eye within pink structure, classified as #tropical-storm as following images classified for this storm
Where is the center, my take was, following swirls the "pseudo-eye"
an #eye was, too,my second choice, but even storm page was not really helpful.
shear?
#shear
I think I've overclassed it as an eye, instead of #curved band, this false eye caught me in
I think I made a wrong choice with#shear, it does look as an #embedded-center
I've classified it as a strong #embedded-center, even if one can see the tiny spot on its way to form an #eye later as saw on storm page.
Classified as an #eye, even if it's a bit overclassed.
I'll try this method!
This one too drove me to scratch my head while looking for his center, and result is uncertain.
#false-eye
was not an obvious task to find its center.
Thanks for comments 😃
It does make sense it's what I thought about storm dying
not an easy center to spot
While classifying , I can't help thinking to people affected by such disasters.
2005 was a prolific year for strong storms in the carribean and gulf of Mexico area!Emily, Cindy, Dennis, and Katrina spread such an havoc
Really a wide eye
set up north of previous center, forming an #embedded-center
another storm cell is seen on northern edge of this image: looking at the storm page , it looks like a new storm
This type of image always drive me toscratch my head with the same issue as yours: #shear or #no-storm!.😃
another real #pinhole-eye
Looking at the storm page, it shows this eye fading then forming an eye again.
I've still classified it as an #eye, or could it be the remnants of true eye moving away from storm center and creating a #false-eye
the perfect #pinhole-eye
Thanks for your help.
real #eye or false eye?
Really hard to find the center,it looks as two twin cells merging by one side
That was a "scratching-head image!
Strong #post-tropical?
I'm not at ease with these images;following an eye on the classification scheme, it could influence wrogly a choice.
strong #shear
I've may be over classified this image as an #eye because of the shape of cold clouds surrounding white spot.
Wide #eye for this powerful storm, illutration of what CCh001 csaid about huge eyes and some stability.
almost an eye just lacking a proper one
Interesting appearance with these two strong cells of cicular cold clouds.
#false-eye, just south east of cold clouds structure
hot spot on this strong #embeddde-center, first step of eye formation?
It could have been a joke: an horse-guard staring at you throgh binocular! More seriously, I've classified it as an #eye.
one step beyond, and cold cloud cells will merge
Classified as an #eye, even if not a perfect feature, but cold clouds shape made my decision.
Following image on storm page, shows roughly the same patern, round hot-spot , within semi-circular cold clouds,but not yet an eye
Classified as #embedded-center, even if central hot spot bears shape of an eye
Eye formation obvious.
Following Fezzik's comment, #Giga-eye new hastag proposal.
My take was #no-storm
Classified as #post-tropical
Still classified as #embedded, hot spot starting eye formation while cold cloud shape not yet circular.
wide #eye!
Looking at storm page, was ultimate #eye pattern for this storm
I've considered it as still an #eye, most of circular clouds being still there
Shows moment when eye is gone but circular feature remains as hot band which was surrounding eye.Strong #embedded-center
strong #embedded center, eye formation is not far away;
Really stron #eye storm; 2005, year of the storms.
2005 was an awful year for hurricanes in the mexican gulf, carribean area and US south states!
just some readings in the french edition of "Scientific American", and particularly a recent special edition about cloud formation and storm
..on the way to form an eye, just west of semicircular cold clouds.On 00022ud, this hot spot stayed undevelopped and...
looking at this image, I was thinking about the hot-spot of ACC00022ud, seems very likely, onthis case, hot spot is...;
real Pinhole #eye
This may be explaining this hot-spot featured near eye
It could have been a structure heading to an eye but aborted? I'm not a specialist about meteo!
If you look at the storm page you may see a hot band developped east of the eye on previous images...
perfectly concentric lays of clouds, colder as you go near to center; strong #embedded-center
nicely shaped #shear
Very nice to see people from diffferent countries taking part in Zoo Universe projects! I feel something interesting as been created
Yes, it was east from Australia
as with ACCOOO4I4c, I'm not at ease to classify this type of storm
As I see on storm page, it was on process to get the clouds whirling around until an eye formation appears.
I'm not satisfied witnh my classification as #post-tropical, may be #shear ?
#eye or not, my take was eye.
Following image is a clear #eye
I've classified it as #eye, #pinhole-eye, may be a bit overclassed;circular cold clouds are there, the eye is just a tiny yellow spot
#Curved-band, interesting to follow evolution of this storm from curved to #embedded-center and #eye.
More seriously, a solution for hot-spot would be nice
One more information: I'm french and I'm afraid my english could be rusty sometimes , so don't mind 😄
Some images showing embedded structures close to an eye.
I missed this #pinhole-eye and classified it wrongly as embedded. It's an interesting case
I've classified it as #embedded-center, I was just considering its appearance 😃, thanks for your comments, I feel them extremely useful .
It was just a joke, bad sense of humour ,I guess!
My take was #shear
quasi an white eye
False eye south of cold circular clouds
Almost an twin eye!
nice #pinhole eye
I'm not sure my classification as an #eye is right.
As you say, on human point of view, a storm is never beautiful.
Three #eyes shaped storm§
#false #eye
Itook it as an #eye: orange and yellow round spot in the center of circular blue cold clouds.
the more you look at Katrina, easier you understand damages inflicted on New Orleans.
#pinhole #eye
strong #embedded storm,evolving toward eye.
I think there is a false-eaye north from circular cold clouds
interesting shape, as two storms merging
I found it interesting with its multiple storm celles, classified as strog #embedded
This one is a real pinhole #eye
I classified it as an #eye storm, but a farfetched pinhole eye !
Nice #shear storm with its well drawned swirls <;
I considered it has a false eye and classified it as #curvedband
I didn't classified this one as an eye, considering it has a false eye, but I could be wrong!
However, following image shows what I believe to be an #eye
I didn't classify this image as an #eye but as a strong #embedded center despite what I think is a false eys just south of center
I 'm still scratching my head about this one!
Not at ese to classify it: strong #curved band, eye has mostly disapeared; an incomplete eye structure still remaining. Comments welcomed!
thanks for your help!
What's the real center of this storm? I choose the six o'clock one, but its neighbour has an equivalent shape.
It could be two centers in this storm,main one being for me the western one.
The only one I go, is a trimestrial supplement of the french edition of Scientific American.Please forgive my rusty english!
Could you please, give me your advice about books ,I could read to update my poor knowledge about storms
This storm was not the best illustrating my question, but your answers were really helpful, thanks for all.
The flying duck! Seriously, still it uneasy with the color wrapping main band when it's to curved band, help welcome
i'm still not at ease to fnd the color wrapping main band, help welcome
I4m not at ease with band color calssification in curved band detailed , do you get tutorial about?
Ones can see a hole in eye center; is it this hole to be considered as the eye, or just a part of the larger one?
what's the colour surrounding this #eye? Is it the pinky grey or the orange one?
I'm not sure if classifying it as eye was right, was limit with strong embedded storm.
eye forming
I classified this one as #eye, considering the circolar cold cloud with its white center, and its spin shape.
Welcome on Cyclone center!
You can see circular cold clouds in center beginning to have a whirl shape; looking consistent with the forth model of embedded sample
Hi, I'm not an expert, but it looks like an #embedded type , starting to spin; on the way to be a very strong one.
huge system spinning around!
Classified as #eye
To spot storm center was tricky! Still not sure to be right
very strong embedded storm, eye forming
All the same!
I didn't classify it as eye , no cold clouds circling center, but last stage of #embedded storm
Evidence its worth using discuss; thanks for help.
I thought it was necessary to get central chimney formed to classify as eye, even a pinhole.I obviously need more experience
Eye closing once on shore
same #eye forming system, classified as embedded ultimate stage of tutorial
Classified as #embedded, one can see eye forming, but not yet completed
Be sure you'll find me back in forum.
Thanks for your help, It's been a while I'm participating in Cyclone Center, but, until recently, I scarcely used discuss line.
how to classify this one?
Thanks, indeed, I found it tricky
I've classified it as "eye", but I'm pretty sure being mistaken by the eye shaped pattern at one o'clock from sorm center!It lacks a reset
thanks
Wondering how to classify this one, help welcome
hard to quote, center out of data
Oops, Im done!
found it tricky: eye, but not so easy
strong #curved band or what else?
without knowing previous data ,I'd say post tropical
another big blue one
big blue one, but disapointed to find so few people over there, maay be my timing (I'm living in France)
straight in the #shear trap!
any advice?
not so easy to classify with multi centers
not so easy to find the center for a novice when it looks like a crab's pincer

This one too drove me to scratch my head while looking for his center, and result is uncertain.
#false-eye
was not an obvious task to find its center.
Thanks for comments 😃
It does make sense it's what I thought about storm dying
not an easy center to spot
While classifying , I can't help thinking to people affected by such disasters.
2005 was a prolific year for strong storms in the carribean and gulf of Mexico area!Emily, Cindy, Dennis, and Katrina spread such an havoc
Really a wide eye
set up north of previous center, forming an #embedded-center
another storm cell is seen on northern edge of this image: looking at the storm page , it looks like a new storm
This type of image always drive me toscratch my head with the same issue as yours: #shear or #no-storm!.😃
another real #pinhole-eye
Looking at the storm page, it shows this eye fading then forming an eye again.
I've still classified it as an #eye, or could it be the remnants of true eye moving away from storm center and creating a #false-eye
the perfect #pinhole-eye
Thanks for your help.
#pinhole-eye
real #eye or false eye?
Really hard to find the center,it looks as two twin cells merging by one side
That was a "scratching-head image!
Strong #post-tropical?
I'm not at ease with these images;following an eye on the classification scheme, it could influence wrogly a choice.
strong #shear
I've may be over classified this image as an #eye because of the shape of cold clouds surrounding white spot.
Wide #eye for this powerful storm, illutration of what CCh001 csaid about huge eyes and some stability.
almost an eye just lacking a proper one
Interesting appearance with these two strong cells of cicular cold clouds.
#false-eye, just south east of cold clouds structure
very strong #curved-band
#pinhole-eye
hot spot on this strong #embeddde-center, first step of eye formation?
It could have been a joke: an horse-guard staring at you throgh binocular! More seriously, I've classified it as an #eye.
one step beyond, and cold cloud cells will merge
Classified as an #eye, even if not a perfect feature, but cold clouds shape made my decision.
Following image on storm page, shows roughly the same patern, round hot-spot , within semi-circular cold clouds,but not yet an eye
Classified as #embedded-center, even if central hot spot bears shape of an eye
Eye formation obvious.
Following Fezzik's comment, #Giga-eye new hastag proposal.
My take was #no-storm
Classified as #post-tropical
Still classified as #embedded, hot spot starting eye formation while cold cloud shape not yet circular.
wide #eye!
Looking at storm page, was ultimate #eye pattern for this storm
I've considered it as still an #eye, most of circular clouds being still there
Shows moment when eye is gone but circular feature remains as hot band which was surrounding eye.Strong #embedded-center
strong #embedded center, eye formation is not far away;
Really stron #eye storm; 2005, year of the storms.
2005 was an awful year for hurricanes in the mexican gulf, carribean area and US south states!
#pinhole-eye
just some readings in the french edition of "Scientific American", and particularly a recent special edition about cloud formation and storm
..on the way to form an eye, just west of semicircular cold clouds.On 00022ud, this hot spot stayed undevelopped and...
looking at this image, I was thinking about the hot-spot of ACC00022ud, seems very likely, onthis case, hot spot is...;
real Pinhole #eye
This may be explaining this hot-spot featured near eye
It could have been a structure heading to an eye but aborted? I'm not a specialist about meteo!
If you look at the storm page you may see a hot band developped east of the eye on previous images...
perfectly concentric lays of clouds, colder as you go near to center; strong #embedded-center
nicely shaped #shear
Very nice to see people from diffferent countries taking part in Zoo Universe projects! I feel something interesting as been created
Yes, it was east from Australia
as with ACCOOO4I4c, I'm not at ease to classify this type of storm
As I see on storm page, it was on process to get the clouds whirling around until an eye formation appears.
I'm not satisfied witnh my classification as #post-tropical, may be #shear ?
#eye or not, my take was eye.
Following image is a clear #eye
I've classified it as #eye, #pinhole-eye, may be a bit overclassed;circular cold clouds are there, the eye is just a tiny yellow spot
#Curved-band, interesting to follow evolution of this storm from curved to #embedded-center and #eye.
More seriously, a solution for hot-spot would be nice
One more information: I'm french and I'm afraid my english could be rusty sometimes , so don't mind 😄
Some images showing embedded structures close to an eye.
I missed this #pinhole-eye and classified it wrongly as embedded. It's an interesting case
I've classified it as #embedded-center, I was just considering its appearance 😃, thanks for your comments, I feel them extremely useful .
It was just a joke, bad sense of humour ,I guess!
My take was #shear
quasi an white eye
False eye south of cold circular clouds
Almost an twin eye!
nice #pinhole eye
I'm not sure my classification as an #eye is right.
As you say, on human point of view, a storm is never beautiful.
Three #eyes shaped storm§
#false #eye
Itook it as an #eye: orange and yellow round spot in the center of circular blue cold clouds.
the more you look at Katrina, easier you understand damages inflicted on New Orleans.
#pinhole #eye
strong #embedded storm,evolving toward eye.
I think there is a false-eaye north from circular cold clouds
interesting shape, as two storms merging
I found it interesting with its multiple storm celles, classified as strog #embedded
This one is a real pinhole #eye
I classified it as an #eye storm, but a farfetched pinhole eye !
Nice #shear storm with its well drawned swirls <;
I considered it has a false eye and classified it as #curvedband
I didn't classified this one as an eye, considering it has a false eye, but I could be wrong!
However, following image shows what I believe to be an #eye
I didn't classify this image as an #eye but as a strong #embedded center despite what I think is a false eys just south of center
I 'm still scratching my head about this one!
Not at ese to classify it: strong #curved band, eye has mostly disapeared; an incomplete eye structure still remaining. Comments welcomed!
thanks for your help!
What's the real center of this storm? I choose the six o'clock one, but its neighbour has an equivalent shape.
It could be two centers in this storm,main one being for me the western one.
The only one I go, is a trimestrial supplement of the french edition of Scientific American.Please forgive my rusty english!
Could you please, give me your advice about books ,I could read to update my poor knowledge about storms
This storm was not the best illustrating my question, but your answers were really helpful, thanks for all.
The flying duck! Seriously, still it uneasy with the color wrapping main band when it's to curved band, help welcome
i'm still not at ease to fnd the color wrapping main band, help welcome
I4m not at ease with band color calssification in curved band detailed , do you get tutorial about?
Ones can see a hole in eye center; is it this hole to be considered as the eye, or just a part of the larger one?
what's the colour surrounding this #eye? Is it the pinky grey or the orange one?
I'm not sure if classifying it as eye was right, was limit with strong embedded storm.
eye forming
I classified this one as #eye, considering the circolar cold cloud with its white center, and its spin shape.
Welcome on Cyclone center!
You can see circular cold clouds in center beginning to have a whirl shape; looking consistent with the forth model of embedded sample
Hi, I'm not an expert, but it looks like an #embedded type , starting to spin; on the way to be a very strong one.
#shear
huge system spinning around!
Classified as #eye
To spot storm center was tricky! Still not sure to be right
very strong embedded storm, eye forming
All the same!
I didn't classify it as eye , no cold clouds circling center, but last stage of #embedded storm
Evidence its worth using discuss; thanks for help.
I thought it was necessary to get central chimney formed to classify as eye, even a pinhole.I obviously need more experience
Eye closing once on shore
same #eye forming system, classified as embedded ultimate stage of tutorial
Classified as #embedded, one can see eye forming, but not yet completed
Be sure you'll find me back in forum.
Thanks for your help, It's been a while I'm participating in Cyclone Center, but, until recently, I scarcely used discuss line.
how to classify this one?
Thanks, indeed, I found it tricky
I've classified it as "eye", but I'm pretty sure being mistaken by the eye shaped pattern at one o'clock from sorm center!It lacks a reset
thanks
thanks
Wondering how to classify this one, help welcome
hard to quote, center out of data
Oops, Im done!
found it tricky: eye, but not so easy
strong #curved band or what else?
without knowing previous data ,I'd say post tropical
another big blue one
big blue one, but disapointed to find so few people over there, maay be my timing (I'm living in France)
straight in the #shear trap!
any advice?
not so easy to classify with multi centers
not so easy to find the center for a novice when it looks like a crab's pincer
