GPM found in an intense feeder band of thunderstorms south of Jebi's center where precipitation was falling at a rate of over 87 mm (3.4 inches) per hour. This view looking toward the southwest, reveals that downpours in the feeder band south of Jebi's center were found by the satellite to reach heights above 13.4 km (8.3 miles).
