Hurricane Milton: New Camera Views - Oct. 9, 2024 | International Space Station

External cameras on the International Space Station captured new views of Hurricane Milton at 8:51 a.m. EDT Oct. 9, 2024, as it sped across the eastern Gulf of Mexico headed for a landfall along the west-central coast of Florida in the overnight hours Oct. 10. At the time of the space station’s flyover, Milton was a strong Category 4 hurricane packing winds of 155 miles an hour, moving northeast at 16 miles an hour. After Milton makes landfall Oct. 10, it is expected to cross the Florida peninsula throughout the day Thursday and emerge over the western Atlantic Thursday afternoon as a category 1 system.
