Marcia definitely got much better organized in the past 12 hours with a very well defined eye. Lam has gotten better organized as well, with an eye appearing near landfall. (looks like the eye of Lam will move parallel along part of the coast before it moves inland)

Australia's intensity scale can be found here:

They use 10 minute sustained winds.

1 minute estimated sustained wind can be found here from the Joint Typhoon Warning Center:

Marcia is forecast by both agencies to strengthen further. (into what would equate to a major hurricane on the US scale)
