Footage released by NASA on Saturday shows Hurricane Harvey as seen from space before it smashed into Texas late on Friday. A wide swathe of the Gulf Coast was lashed with strong winds and torrential rain from the fiercest hurricane to hit the US in more than a decade. The US National Hurricane Center said the eye of the Category 4 hurricane made landfall about 03:00 GMT Saturday about 48 kilometers northeast of Corpus Christi, bringing with it 130 miles per hour (209 kph) sustained winds and flooding rains.
