Flooding is still widespread in North Carolina. Some rivers in North Carolina such as the Tar and the Neuse Rivers were still rising on Oct. 12.

At NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland a rainfall analysis was accomplished using data from NASA's Integrated Multi-satellitE Retrievals for GPM (IMERG). The GPM or Global Precipitation Measurement mission is a joint mission between NASA and the Japanese space agency JAXA.

This rainfall analysis was created using IMERG real time data covering the period from Sept. 28 through Oct. 10, 2016. The totals included some rain from a low pressure area that moved through the area near the end of September.

Hurricane Matthew’s interaction with a frontal boundary caused extreme rainfall in North Carolina resulting in over 20 inches (508 mm) of rain being reported in North Carolina. The area was already saturated before Hurricane Matthew arrived. Heavy rainfall from a slow moving low and frontal system moved through during the last week of September. Maximum rainfall total estimates for the real-time IMERG product have been adjusted to reflect observed values.", "items": [], "extra_data": {} } ], "studio": "gms", "funding_sources": [ "PAO" ], "credits": [ { "role": "Producer", "people": [ { "name": "Ryan Fitzgibbons", "employer": "USRA" } ] }, { "role": "Scientist", "people": [ { "name": "Scott Braun", "employer": "NASA/GSFC" }, { "name": "Dalia B Kirschbaum", "employer": "NASA/GSFC" }, { "name": "Owen Kelley", "employer": "George Mason University" } ] }, { "role": "Visualizer", "people": [ { "name": "Alex Kekesi", "employer": "Global Science and Technology, Inc." }, { "name": "Hal Pierce", "employer": "SSAI" } ] } ], "missions": [ "Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM)" ], "series": [ "Narrated Movies" ], "tapes": [], "papers": [], "datasets": [], "nasa_science_categories": [ "Earth" ], "keywords": [ "Atmosphere", "Atmospheric Phenomena", "Earth Science", "GPM", "Hurricane Matthew", "Hurricanes", "Natural hazards" ], "recommended_pages": [], "related": [ { "id": 4575, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/4575/", "page_type": "Visualization", "title": "NASA Studies Hurricane Matthew", "description": "This data visualization follows Hurricane Matthew throughout its destructive run in the Caribbean and Southeast U.S. coast.

As the camera slowly pushes in, Hurricane Matthew begins to form. By the morning of October 2nd, 2016 Matthew is a Category 4 Hurricane immediately south of Haiti and the Dominican Republic. Time then slows down to see GPM's GPROF swath reveal ground precipitation from the hurricane. Now, with the camera closer in the view rotates to reveal a curtain of 3-dimensional radar data from GPM's DPR instrument. DPR shows the 3-D structure of the hurricane's precipitation rates. Areas in blue and purple are frozen precipitation, whereas areas in greens and reds are liquid precipitation. The data for October 2nd then fades away and the hurricane advances to October 3rd, stopping over Haiti. A new satellite pass of GPM GPROF ground precipitation is revealed, followed by a new curtain of 3-D DPR data.", "width": 1024, "height": 576, "pixels": 589824 } }, { "id": 4507, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/4507/", "page_type": "Visualization", "title": "GPM Captures Hurricane Matthew Before Haiti Landfall", "description": "This animation starts with an overview of North America, Central America, and the Caribbean.
