IMERG Data of Dorian

Caption

NASA's IMERG showed during the past day, most of the areas experiencing over 10 inches of rain accumulation remained offshore, while Dorian did drop heavy rain on South Carolina and North Carolina. The graphic shows the distance that tropical-storm force (39 mph) winds extend from Hurricane Dorian's low-pressure center, as estimated by the National Hurricane Center. The Saffir-Simpson intensity category is the number following the "H" in the label on the image. The preliminary reports of tornadoes were obtained from NOAA's Storm Prediction Center, and are shown on the graphic as red circles.
