What is special about the center eye of a hurricane?

Answer 1

cyclones have eyes because:

The eye is a region of mostly calm weather found at the center of strong tropical cyclones. The eye of a storm is a roughly circular area and typically 30-65 km (20-40 miles) in diameter. It is surrounded by the eyewall, a ring of towering thunderstorms where the most severe weather of a cyclone occurs. The cyclone's lowest barometric pressure occurs in the eye, and can be as much as 15% lower than the atmospheric pressure outside the storm.[1]

In strong tropical cyclones, the eye is characterized by light winds and clear skies, surrounded on all sides by a towering, symmetric eyewall. In weaker tropical cyclones, the eye is less well-defined, and can be covered by the central dense overcast, which is an area of high, thick clouds which show up brightly on satellite imagery. Weaker or disorganized storms may also feature an eyewall which does not completely encircle the eye, or have an eye which features heavy rain. In all storms, however, the eye is the location of the storm's minimum barometric pressure: the area where the atmospheric pressure at sea level is the lowest.

Answer 2

The center eye of a hurricane is characterized by calm and clear conditions, with lighter winds and no precipitation. This calm area contrasts sharply with the fierce winds and heavy rain found in the eyewall surrounding it. The eye is usually circular and can range in size from a few miles to over 100 miles in diameter.

Answer 3

The center of a hurricane is called the eye because the apparent hole in the clouds looks somewhat like an eye.
