TRMM Shows Opening in Edzani, Still Some Heavy Rain

Caption

NASA and JAXA's Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission, or TRMM satellite showed Edzani's eastern side still had some areas of heavy rainfall (red) at ~2 inches/hr. Most of the rainfall was east of the center and was between .7 and 1.6 inches/hr (light green). The TRMM analysis also showed that the western side of the storm's circulation is open, and no convection is happening.
