Because the air at the centre is descending, diagrams of a hurricane cross section will often depict the convected air at the top moving back down in the middle.
A hurricane is formed and driven by the transfer of heat from a warm ocean to the atmosphere, the Coriolis effect is responsible for the spiral organisation of large storms.
As warm moist air rises and releases energy on the way up, cold dry air emerges at the top of the troposphere this produces an unstable state where the air masses at the top and the bottom have the propensity to trade places under the right conditions.
The cold dry air piles up at the centre causing conditions that not favour strong convection coupled with the organised nature of a hurricane causes the cloud free eye.

What happens in the eye of the hurricane?
In the eye of a hurricane, the weather is calm and peaceful. The skies are clear, and winds are light. The eye is surrounded by the eyewall, where the most intense winds and rainfall of the hurricane occur.
What is the eye wall of a hurricane?
The eye of a hurricane is an area of calm, often clear air at the center of a hurricane. The eye wall of a hurricane is the area surrounding the eye, where the strongest winds are.
Is it really clam in the eye of the hurricane and why?
Yes, it's calm in the eye of a hurricane because the sinking air in the center suppresses cloud formation and precipitation. This creates a temporary period of calm within the storm's intense winds and rain.
What is the location and weather like in the eye of a hurricane?
The eye of a hurricane is located at the center of the storm and is typically calm with clear skies. The weather in the eye is characterized by light winds and no precipitation. The eye is surrounded by the eyewall, which contains the most severe weather conditions in the form of strong winds and heavy rain.
Can you float in the eye of a hurricane?
Yes. Inside the eye of a hurricane it is beatifull weather, because of the low pressure. It can be very cold. It is silent for a moment, you can not float on the water without a proper inflatable tube, but it is very temporary nice weather, but if the eye passes by it will be bad weather again, with the very strong wind (100 - 290 km/u) in the opposite direction (because the hurricane is in fact a great cloud which looks like a wheel with an open spot (the eye) in the middle when you see the computer drawn cloud in the weather forecast.)
Does the eye in the hurricane have thunderstorms in it?
No. The eye of a hurricane is free of storms.
What is the eye of a tornado called?
The eye of a hurricane is a calm, rain free, and sometimes cloud free area at the center of a hurricane, surrounded by the storm's strongest winds.
The strongest part of a hurricane is called the eye?
No, they eye of a hurricane is calm. The strongest part of a hurricane is the eyewall, a ring of heavy rain and strong winds just outside the eye.
Is the eye free of clouds in a hurricane?
Often but not always.
Why are skies often clear or cloudy in a hurricane's eye?
Air in the eye of a hurricane is sinking. As it sinks it warms up, which causes clouds to evaporate. Some cloud are often still present in the eye as the air is still very moist.
Why is the eye of the hurricane sunny?
The eye of a hurricane forms because the winds are spinning so fast that they cannot reach the center of the storm, but there is still low pressure pulling the air towards it. To satisfy this pressure deficit air is pulled down from the top of the storm. As this air sinks it warms up, causing the clouds to evaporate.

What the eye is and what conditions exist in the eye of a hurricane?
The eye of a hurricane is the calm, circular area at the center of the storm characterized by clear skies and light winds. Conditions in the eye include reduced cloud cover, low precipitation, and sometimes even a break in destructive winds. It is surrounded by the eyewall, where the strongest winds and most intense rainfall occur.
What would you observe if you were in the eye of a hurricane?
You would observe little to no wind, no rain, and thinned cloud, possibly with areas of clear sky.
