Cameras outside the International Space Station captured jaw-dropping footage of three hurricanes making their way through the Pacific and the Atlantic Ocean.

In a video released by NASA, Hurricane Lester and Madeline can be seen in the Pacific Ocean and finally Hurricane Gaston in the Atlantic Ocean.

Hurricane Madeline, which was barreling towards Hawaii, was downgraded to a tropical storm by the National Weather Service Wednesday, but heavy rains and winds are still expected.

On Wednesday, Lester was more than 1,000 miles from Hilo, Hawaii, but could impact the island chain as early as Saturday.

And Hurricane Gaston isn't the only major storm staking its claim in the Atlantic Ocean. Tropical storm Hermine has already caused flooding in parts of Florida and resulted in storm warnings and watches across the state, according to the Weather Channel.

Time lapse video of the hurricanes shows the eye of each storm amid swirling white clouds as the International Space Station passed more than 257 miles above the Earth.
