IMERG Data from Delta

Caption

On Oct. 9 at 5:30 a.m. EDT (0930 UTC), NASA's IMERG estimated Delta was generating as much as 50 mm(~2 inches of rain [dark red]) around the center of circulation. Rainfall rates in storms surrounding those areas of heaviest rainfall (green, pink, red) were estimated as falling at a rate between 10 and 40 mm (0.4 to 1.6 inches) per hour. The rainfall data was overlaid on infrared imagery from NOAA's GOES-16 satellite.
