Hurricane Katrina slams into Louisiana and Mississippi. 3224 Hurricane Katrina Progression
TRMM provides this view of Hurricane Ivan on September 16, 2004, as its eye makes landfall. TRMM lets us see through the clouds. Blue represents areas with at least 0.25 inches of rain per hour. 3011 Hurricane Ivan Rainfall Structure seen by TRMM on September 16, 2004
Hurricane Ivan on September 15, 2004. The rain structure is taken by TRMMs Precipitation Radar (PR). Precipitation Radar has a horizontal resolution at the ground of about 2.5 miles (four kilometers) and a swath width of 137 miles (220 kilometers). One of its most important features will be its ability to provide vertical profiles of the rain and snow from the surface up to a height of about 12 miles (20 kilometers). It looks underneath of the storms clouds to reveal the underlying rain structure. Blue represents areas with at least 0.25 inches of rain per hour. High vertical bands on the outside of the storm indicated that Hurricane Ivan was very likely to spawn tornados in Florida and Georgia. 3009 TRMM Looks at the Rain Fueling Hurricane Ivan on September 15, 2004
