More than 22,000 miles above the surface of Earth, a new weather satellite run by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration captured high-resolution imagery of three dangerous hurricanes moving across the Atlantic Ocean over the past week. Each frame in the composite animations below is separated by 15 minutes.

The satellite, called GOES-16, is undergoing testing as it maintains geostationary orbit above the Galapagos Islands, and it is expected to become fully operational in November. It provides four times the image resolution of older GOES satellites and will help provide better weather forecasts.

Hurricane Irma made multiple landfalls over the past week, devastating islands in the Caribbean before reaching Florida on Sunday morning. Hurricane Jose swung north into deeper waters, while Hurricane Katia poured rain on the Mexican state of Veracruz.

Hurricane Irma’s Path Through the Caribbean

On Wednesday, when Hurricane Irma was at its strongest, it made a series of landfalls on Barbuda, St. Martin and the British Virgin Islands, causing extensive damage.

Fading North, From the Keys to the Panhandle

Hurricane Irma swept along the coast of Cuba on Saturday before turning north to make landfall in the Florida Keys on Sunday. It weakened as it passed over the rest of Florida and was downgraded to a tropical storm by Monday morning. More than half the state lost power.

A Closer Look at the Eye Wall

The eye of Hurricane Irma, roughly 30 miles wide, is shown below on the morning of Sept. 5, with each frame separated by one minute or less. This was just after it had intensified into a Category 5 storm, and the day before it reached peak strength.

In a NOAA reconnaissance mission, a plane flew through the eye wall to gather data on the storm, recording winds of 139 miles per hour at sea level.
