Hurricane Georges from TRMM: September 27, 1998
This image was taken at 2:00 PM.

A fly-in to Hurricane Georges on September 27, 1998 at 2:00 PM, showing the three-dimensional structure of the precipitation as measured by the Precipitation Radar instrument on TRMM. In this animation, a surface of constant precipitation is colored by the value of the precipitation on the ground under the surface.    A fly-in to Hurricane Georges on September 27, 1998 at 2:00 PM, showing the three-dimensional structure of the precipitation as measured by the Precipitation Radar instrument on TRMM.
