Detailed view of Typhoon Kong-Rey's 🌀 large eye while just off the southeast coast of #Taiwan was captured by #Sentinel2 🛰️this morning. #TyphoonKongRey #KongRey
It's getting calm. The eye is pretty close, I think. But it's dark now, so there's nothing to see. I've been in the eye once before, in daytime, and it's a really weird feeling.
