Hurricane Ivan Rainfall Structure with Cloud Overlay on September 16, 2004 |
| Abstract |
NASA's TRMM spacecraft is used by meteorologists to understand Hurricane Ivan. TRMM observed this view of Hurricane Ivan as the storm made landfall on September 16, 2004. The cloud cover is taken by TRMM's Visible and Infrared Scanner(VIRS). The rain structure is taken by TRMM's Tropical Microwave Imager (TMI). It looks underneath of the storm's clouds to reveal the underlying rain structure. Blue represents areas with at least 0.25 inches of rain per hour. Green shows at least 0.5 inches of rain per hour. Yellow is at least 1.0 inches of rain and red is at least 2.0 inches of rain per hour. |

Progression of Hurricane Jeanne, 2004 (WMS) |
| Abstract |
Hurricane Jeanne was the fourth hurricane to hit Florida during the 2004 hurricane season. This set of images shows the progression of the hurricane as it approached Florida from the Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea. When it hit the Florida coast on September 26, Jeanne was a Category 3 storm with sustained winds near 115 miles per hour. |

TRMM Precipiation Radar Observes Rain Structure of Hurricane Jeanne on September 23, 2004 |
| Abstract |
NASA's TRMM spacecraft is used by meteorologists to understand Hurricane Jeanne. TRMM recorded this view of Hurricane Jeanne on September 23, 2004. The cloud cover is taken by TRMM's Visible and Infrared Scanner(VIRS) and the rain structure is seen by TRMM's Precipitation Radar (PR). It looks underneath of the storm's clouds to reveal the underlying rain structure. Blue represents areas with at least 0.25 inches of rain per hour. Green shows at least 0.5 inches of rain per hour.

Global Surface Wind Speed du

| Title |
Global Surface Wind Speed during Hurricane Frances (WMS) |
| Abstract |
The weight of the Earth's atmosphere exerts pressure on the surface of the Earth. This pressure varies from place-to-place and from time-to-time due to surface irregularities, uneven heating of the atmosphere by the sun, and the Earth's rotation. Differences in pressure from place-to-place cause winds to try to flow from high pressure to low pressure regions to even out the differences, but the Earth's rotation and wind friction with the surface act to slow or divert the winds. This animation shows the surface wind speeds for the whole globe from September 1, 2004, through September 5, 2004, during the period of Hurricane Frances in the western Atlantic Ocean and Typhoon Songda in the western Pacific Ocean. The highest, smoothest winds occur over the oceans where there are no surface irregularities to break up the flow, while flows over land tend to be irregular and highly variable. The highest winds occur in Hurricane Frances and Typhoon Songda, but note that the hurricane's wind speeds reduce dramatically when crossing Florida. |
