00:58 Massive Storm Over Atlantic Meteorologist Ari Sarsalari looks at a massive storm brewing over the North Atlantic Ocean.

At a Glance A very intense storm formed in the north Atlantic this weekend.

Hurricane-force winds of at least 90 mph were estimated.

A powerful low-pressure system with hurricane-force winds intensified over the north Atlantic Ocean Sunday and Monday, resulting in extraordinary imagery from satellites in space.

Winds in the intense non-tropical cyclone were estimated to be at least 90 mph late Sunday, said NOAA's Ocean Prediction Center , which also analyzed the storm with a central pressure as low as 932 millibars Monday morning.

In general, a lower atmospheric pressure correlates with a more intense storm. For reference, the lowest central pressure of last October's Hurricane Matthew was 934 millibars . Despite the similar pressure at its peak, wind speeds in non-tropical cyclones such as this one are much lower than hurricanes, because the pressure gradient is spread out over a much larger area than in a hurricane.

The core of this intense storm will pass between Greenland and Iceland through Tuesday while weakening, sparing any land masses from a direct hit. However, Iceland will see gusty winds and rainfall as the storm passes to its west.

Here is some of the imagery of this powerful weather system:
