The eye is the center of the storm. It is the most calm place in a hurricane since conditions are clear with light winds usually less than 15 mph. The eye is typically 20 to 40 miles across; however, they have been know to be a small as a few miles and much greater than 40 miles.
Between 100 and 200 kilometers from the eye, the winds are fast enough to qualify as tropical storm force. The atmospheric pressure here will still be relatively high compared to the storm's center at about 990 to 1010 millibars
