A Tuesday morning satellite image of Hurricane Michael suggests that the storm has a giant, creepy skull in its center, reports AccuWeather. In hindsight, it appears that could have been a sign that it would turn into a particularly menacing Category 4 event before making landfall in Florida.  Jim Dickey, a meteorologist in Ft. Myers, tweeted the satellite image on Tuesday and offered a scientific explanation for the menacing form.  He wrote: "[Michael] has that 'skull' appearance on [infrared] satellite this morning as the eye is beginning to clear out through the CDO," or thunderclouds that encircle the hurricane's eye.  Michael is expected to reach Florida's panhandle on Wednesday in the early afternoon, notes CNN.
