A Decade of Global Precipitation

Through rain and snow, hurricane, typhoon and monsoon, flash flood and bomb cyclone, for ten years, the joint NASA-JAXA Global Precipitation Measurement mission has measured a lot of water. Now in its tenth year of operation, we look at ten events brought to light by this groundbreaking mission.

NASA Tracks Freddy, Longest-lived Tropical Cyclone on Record

Tropical Cyclone Freddy lasted more than five weeks. Once a very powerful Category 5 cyclone, Freddy first made landfall along the east coast of Madagascar on February 21, 2023, just north of the town of Mananjary as a Category 3 cyclone.

IMPACTS 2022: NASA Planes Fly into Snowstorms to Study Snowfal

What NASA’s IMPACTS mission learns about snowstorms will improve meteorological models and our ability to use satellite data to predict how much snow will fall and where.
