Wilma says to NOAA satellite, "What are *you* looking at??!"

The two dots in the center of this infra-red photo of Hurricane Wilma look like eyes - it looks to me like someone looking up and reaching outward...

Not necessarily pretty in the traditional sense but still with a bit of a dark beauty (in the same way that tornados are destructive but also awe-inspiring and occasionally beautiful).
As it is, Wilma is a BUFF lil' 'cane (to the point it's actually kind of scary to think about) and quite the fighter. Her eye is easily the tiniest I've EVER seen (only 2 to 4 miles wide--which on the small end is the size of a big tornado) and in less than 24 hours she went from a minimal tropical storm to the strongest hurricane EVER recorded in the Atlantic (and only 14 millibars away from being the strongest tropical system (hurricane/typhoon/tropical cyclone) EVER, ANYWHERE--and only about a tenth of the size of Supertyphoon Tip, the strongest storm ever recorded).
I'd be shocked if she WASN'T pissed off, to be honest.

With that amount of concentrated energy in one place, and orginised at that, it would make perfect sence that they would have some sort of consciousness - just not one we could easily "talk" to. If another thing they are is manifestations of the awakening planet's... irritation... Well, it's about time.
