Hurricane Fabian

Hurricane Fabian

The MODIS instrument onboard NASA’s Terra satellite captured this true-color image of Hurricane Fabian as it was fast-approaching the tiny island of Bermuda. At the time this image was taken Fabian was located approximately 110 miles south-southest of Bermuda and was packing sustained winds near 120 mph with higher gusts.
