Wouldn’t the increase in pressure increase temperature too, preventing condensation?

<p>This weather phenomenon occurs when, due to ascending winds above a typically invisible storm or vortex, there is a significant acceleration (for at least 1 minute). Hence the term &quot;squall,&quot; which describes the increase in wind speed.
However during storms, Bulls Eye is the term used when it causes significant damage to property (similar to hitting the bull's eye in archery). Besides these fast winds, there are also Bulls Eye storms, etc.</p>

Bulls eye squalls, also known as "eye-like" squalls, are a meteorological phenomenon characterized by the formation of a circular or ring-shaped band of intense precipitation surrounding a clear or relatively calm area, similar to the eye of a hurricane. These squalls are often associated with convective systems, such as thunderstorms or mesoscale convective complexes.

Thats the answer from ChatGPT and here you can see how AI missinterpretates the Therm Bulles eye. The only thing AI on my answer is the gramma correction (as you see my english isn´t the best)

Not one I've heard before (as a meteorologist).  So think it would help to give us more background (location you live, where you hear it, what the term means)

@JeopardyTempest its a very very bad known phenomen. I heard in university about it however just as a side note (it was observed roughly 10 times). Squals are more popular I guess...

Squalls in general are periods of increased sustained wind speed lasting for some minutes, they're generally associated with active air movement around rainstorms etc... *Bull's Eye Squall* is a term unique to the southern coast of Africa where it refers to a squall that blows up during what is otherwise apparently settled weather. They're caused by the same thing that all squalls are, atmospheric instability, in this case a sharp downdraft akin to a [micro burst](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Downburst). They're named for the round cloud that forms in the downdraft column as the air is condensed by the higher pressure at lower altitude, this cloud is often the only sign of the squall and rarely results in rain.
