Boris Intensifies, Hits Mexico And Dissipates
Tropical Depression TWO-E was upgraded to tropical storm Boris yesterday at 1800 UTC (11AM PDT) but Boris weakened to a tropical depression after going ashore in Mexico. The TRMM satellite passed above tropical depression Boris on June 4, 2014 at 1457 UTC and collected data used in this rainfall analysis. TRMM rainfall data are shown overlaid on a GOES-EAST enhanced infrared/visible image received at 1445 UTC. TRMM's Microwave Imager (TMI) data show that Boris was still dropping light to moderate rain over southern Mexico in the area of the Gulf Of Tehuantepec.
