📷 Hurricane #Melissa captured by the #CopernicusEU Sentinel-3 satellite on 26 October using its radiometer 🧪🌍 www.esa.int/ESA_Multimed... @esaearth.esa.int @noaa.gov

This image captured by Copernicus Sentinel-3 on 26 October 2025 shows the ‘brightness temperature’ at the top of Hurricane Melissa as it moves through the Caribbean Sea towards Jamaica, where it is expected to make landfall.

Classified as a Category 5 storm by the US-based National Hurricane Center, Hurricane Melissa is the world’s strongest storm so far this year.

The brightness temperature of the clouds at the top of the storm, high above the ocean, range from about –75°C near the eye of the storm to about –25°C at the edges. The temperature of the surrounding ocean is much warmer, reaching as high as 25°C.

This image has been overlaid with the landmasses below and is a mosaic of two different swaths, hence the visible diagonal line that crosses the storm.
