The water vapor shows it clearly, the eyewall has closed off now and intensification could become much more rapid. If this trend holds up we could see an eye visible on satellite within 6 hours, just before Gustav makes landfall in southeast/central Louisiana. The green circle indicates the center of circulation of Gustav.
Hurricane Hunters found 952.7, but the dropsonde is not yet in, so we don't know the specific pressure. I am guessing 954 mb, a continued drop in pressure.
