On October 8, 2024, Hurricane Milton presented a clear, breathtaking eye over the Gulf of Mexico. Milton’s eye wall contained powerful winds of 165 mph (265 km/hr) as a Category 5 storm. More imagery of Hurricane Milton can be found on its event page.

165 miles per hour around a 9 mile track...
Edit, not diamiter squared, radius squared... A 2 mile track...

Clearly the Jewish Space Laser punched a whole here ;)
What a great picture!

Probably one of the best live streams on the matter:

Tight butthole!

I also like https://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/GOES/floater.php?stormid=AL142024#tab2 with the sandwich RGB option. Its a little buggy so if it doesn't load right away you can click on one of the other views like Gulf of Mexico and back to HU Milton and it will load with the color contrast.
