ISS009-E-20909 (30 August 2004) --- This image of Hurricane Frances was acquired by the crew of the International Space Station early Monday (12:16:47 GMT) as it was moving westward some 265 miles east-northeast of the northern Windward Islands. The storm was packing winds of 120 mph at the time and appeared to be tracking towards the Bahamas Islands and eventually Florida. A large, ragged eye is visible with a large arc of high clouds flowing away from the top of the storm.
