Arab Weather - Satellite images at the Arab Weather Center monitor the eye of Hurricane Helen, which may appear somewhat small through the images, but through remote measurement systems and on the ground, the area of the hurricane's eye reaches a very large area, which means that its area is larger than the area of 3 countries.

 

The geographical area of the hurricane's eye is larger than 3 countries in the world.

 

The area and geographical extension of the eye of a hurricane reaches about 45 square kilometers, which means that its area has exceeded the area of the Vatican, Monaco and Nanga. It is scientifically and meteorologically recognized that the eye of a hurricane is an area of air gathering and cloud formation around the eye, which means that the eye is an area of very low atmospheric pressure that violently builds its wall, but is completely stable and calm. The crossing of the eye usually deceives residents with stable weather and the appearance of sunshine, thinking that the hurricane has left, but soon the more violent eye wall of the hurricane crosses and destroys everything in its path with torrential rains and strong winds.

God knows best.
