Description
Satellite-Derived Tropical Rainfall Estimate text product produced by the National Hurricane Center is proposed for termination - This product provides, on an event-driven basis, a tabular depiction of satellite rainfall estimated from tropical cyclones and pre-tropical cyclone disturbances. Reason for proposed termination: This product was primarily intended to provide forecast centers in the Caribbean, Mexico, and Central America better satellite based estimates for significant rainfall events. This product was conceived at a time when satellite imagery and model analyses for precipitation were not as readily available as they are today. Alternative sources of information when terminated: • Users of the product can now access graphical satellite rainfall estimates from the National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service (NESDIS) at: https://www.ospo.noaa.gov/Products/atmosphere/spe/ • Model analyses of rainfall can be found at the NWS Model Analysis and Guidance site at: https://mag.ncep.noaa.gov
