It's like a microcane forming at the center of a hurricane with a 100 mile wide eye...

Not getting those down to the surface though...very Isabel like. When she came ashore we got into the SW eyewall with 100knt plus winds overhead and only gusted to 50ish at the surface.
So far on this current recon there has not been any SFMR over 80ish knts...though the area that is seeing those winds at the surface is pretty huge.

And there you have it folks.....the most resilient hurricane in the most recent past. 
Thrilled she is not moving inland.
I may be wrong but with that eye, guessing she is way past 110 mph.

I'm heading back over to Wrightsville Beach to try to get a few more videos today to see how much bigger the waves are
South End, @ Old Crystal Pier, It's loaded w/surfers.

Got some dry air lurking north of the CoC. But eyewall looking good.
IF you watch the Surf City pier "T", aka on the end,, It's Rockin & Rollin...

Waves are solid. Weird how it is fairly calm then a big set if swells would roll in. They are big but videos never do it justice. I'd guess 8 footers. Got a pic of a good one with surfers as reference
Beaches are going to wash away down to the bedrock

Now for my not so nice post. I had my son on a giant concrete pier to view the Waves. There was a family that had their 2 daughters IN THE WATER both under the age of 10. That is insane and should lead to a CPS visit. WTF is wrong with people!!!!
First storm to ever cause waves
There are entirely families out playing in the water here. Fire dept is sitting at public accesses waiting, kind of crazy to see

Oregon inlet about to widen. Pea Island might get a smidge smaller. It’s all just a giant sandbar anyway. Not so shocking when looking at it objectively.
That low area just north of Rodanthe will breach one day and you’ll have another inlet there. Probably in your grandkids lifetime
Probably the eyewall on the Morehead city radar now at about 50,000 ft
