Hurricane Ike just rolled across Cuba, and soaked parts of Haiti - both regions still reeling from recent Hurricane Gustav. Ike appears to be weakening now, but is headed tward the Gulf Coast of the U.S., and may yet strengthen. The crew aboard the International Space Station was able to take a photo of Ike from 220 miles overhead last Thursday - one in a long series of great NASA photographs of hurricanes from space. Here are some of the best, from the past several years. (25 photos total)

With hurricane season in full swing and Hurricane Ike bearing down on the Gulf Coast, web site Stormpulse introduces their Google Maps-like tool offering tracking information and projections for the storm. The site sports drag and drop map functionality, great visualizations, and a wealth of helpful info about the storm.
