Hurricane Milton came out of nowhere, appearing in the Gulf of Mexico as a tropical storm. Two days later, it was a Category 5 hurricane, charting an inexorable path toward the Tampa Bay area, due to hit the coast October 8/9. As residents flee, NASA has been recording the dramatic storm from space. High sea surface temperatures in the Gulf of Mexico fueled the storm, allowing it to grow so powerful, so quickly. Cameras from the ISS show the storm's enormous scale.
