The phrase "eye of the storm" refers to the relatively calm center of a hurricane, where winds are
light and the skies are only slightly cloudy, or even clear. If the eye of the hurricane passes over
during the daytime, one might see sunny skies and even enjoy a rise in temperature. Observers
sometimes mistake the arrival of the eye as a sign that the storm is over; but, at the end of the
eye's passage, the storm returns at full force with a deluge of rain and violent winds blowing in
the opposite direction to that of the storm’s leading edge.
