POWERFUL HURRICANE HELENE MAKES LANDFALL IN FLORIDA’S BIG BEND

After tracking through the eastern Gulf of Mexico and battering much of the west
coast of Florida with strong winds and storm surge, Hurricane Helene made
landfall in the Big Bend region of Florida’s northwest coast at 11:10 pm EDT
about 10 miles west-southwest of Perry, Florida, as a powerful Category 4
hurricane with maximum sustained winds reported at 140 mph by the National
Hurricane Center...

Data News

1997 - 2015

2014 - Present

NASA’s Global Precipitation Measurement Mission (GPM) uses satellites to measure
Earth's rain and snowfall for the benefit of mankind. Launched by NASA and JAXA
on Feb. 27th, 2014, GPM is an international mission that sets the standard for
spaceborne precipitation measurements. Using a network of satellites united by
the GPM Core Observatory, GPM expands on the legacy of the Tropical Rainfall
Measuring Mission (TRMM) by providing high quality estimates of Earth’s rain and
snowfall every 30 minutes. Learn More 

Celebrate GPM's 10th Anniversary!

Learn how GPM datasets are being used by government agencies and other
organizations around the world to study natural disasters, public health,
freshwater resources, and a variety of other application areas.

NEAR REAL-TIME IMERG


LATEST HALF-HOUR OF EARTH'S PRECIPITATION

The Integrated Multi-satellitE Retrievals for GPM product combines precipitation
observations using infrared and microwave sensors from a constellation of
partner satellites, united by the GPM Core Observatory, to provide near
real-time half-hourly precipitation estimates at 10km resolution for the entire
globe.
