We've moved!
Information about NASA's Global Precipitation Measurement Mission (GPM) can now be found at @NASAAtmosphere
Starting next week, all Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) and @NASARain content will be shared on the new NASA Atmosphere account. Start following @NASAHurricane now, and you’ll automatically be following the new account once it launches.

On Sunday, Somalia was hit by its first hurricane-strength storm in recorded history. Typically, northern Somalia receives ~4 in. of rain/year. Cyclone #Gati brought at least that much in two days. go.nasa.gov/3nTDGYc

On December 1 we're moving over to a new account - NASA Atmosphere.
Here's the head of @NASA’s Science Mission Directorate, @Dr_ThomasZ, on NASA’s evolving social media strategy: go.nasa.gov/3m2FeyD

We've got BIG news! Next week the NASA Hurricane account is expanding its reach and & changing its name, covering all of Earth’s #atmosphere in addition to #hurricanes.
Stay tuned for more news on the transition to NASA Atmosphere.

The @NASA / @JAXA_en Global Precipitation Measurement Mission (GPM) Core Observatory satellite flew over #Eta once again on Wednesday, November 11, observing the heavy rainfall it brought to the Florida coast. gpm.nasa.gov/applications/we…

The @NASA / @JAXA_en GPM Core Observatory satellite observed the precipitation in Tropical Storm #Eta late Sunday night, shortly after the storm made landfall in the Florida Keys gpm.nasa.gov/applications/we…
As GPM helps us understand Earth's water cycle, other #NASA satellites help us understand other Earth systems.
Later this month Sentinel-6 Michael Freilich will launch, and help us better understand sea level rise. Learn more in this educational iQuest: go.nasa.gov/3ePBNIU
Tracking soil moisture lets us know what regions may be susceptible for floods or fires.
Now, near real-time data from #NASA's SMAP satellite is available in #GIS format, which can aid disaster response agencies in preparing for the next big storm.

The #NASA GPM / ACCP Transportation & Logistics workshop has come to a close. Thanks to all who participated!
For those who were unable to attend, recordings and presentations from the workshop are now available online: go.nasa.gov/352ErHY
#NASA estimated the total rainfall #HurricaneEta brought to Central America from November 1 - 6 go.nasa.gov/3l7pJoq
This week #HurricaneEta brought devastating flooding rainfall to Central America. The @NASA / @JAXA_en GPM Core Observatory flew over the storm late Tuesday night, observing the structure & intensity of precipitation within the storm go.nasa.gov/3517Nqg
Day 1 of the #NASA Transportation & Logistics Workshop has concluded, and presentations are now available online.
There's still time to attend day 2 & 3! Learn more and register here: go.nasa.gov/3oR8YQN
Just 4 days until the #NASA Transportation & Logistics Workshop on Nov. 2, 4, & 5!
Engage with scientists and learn about current & future applications of precipitation and cloud data to support #transportation & #logistics.

Join the NASA GPM-ACCP Transportation & Logistics Workshop on Nov. 2, 4, & 5 to engage with scientists and learn about current & future applications of precipitation and cloud data to support transportation & logistics for aviation, maritime, and roads: gpm.nasa.gov/science/meeting…
Last Friday we celebrated #WorldFoodDay. Did you know that GPM data are used to assist farmers with increasing crop production, reducing use of freshwater resources for watering crops, and to aid small farmers with affordable microinsurance? Learn more: go.nasa.gov/31WXikZ
