Watch Hurricane Florence Churn Toward the East Coast in NASA and NOAA GIFs [bestandroiddoubledinheadunit950.blogspot.com]

Hurricane Florence is heading toward the U.S. East Coast, and the Category 4 storm is expected to make landfall in North Carolina or South Carolina by Saturday (Sept. 15).

NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) are keeping tabs on the storm with a fleet of weather satellites, while astronauts have photographed it from the International Space Station. See the latest Hurricane Florence satellite images and animations from space here. This article will be updated periodically with the newest views.

#HurricaneFlorence is very large and incredibly dangerous.

Follow local evacuation orders!

Satellite microwave imagery is used by forecasters monitor the inner structure of hurricanes. Here is the last 48 hours of Florence following the storm. See at the start of the video how the smaller inner eye collapses and a new larger eyewall forms (an eyewall replacement cycle) pic.twitter.com/SsmKLl1c1e
