IMERG Rainfall Accumulation over the United States for 5/27/2016-6/9/2016
A week-long series of heavy rain storms across Texas in late May to early June of 2016 led to flash floods from Houston to Dallas. This rain is captured in a rain accumulation visualization derived from the IMERG precipitation dataset.
This visualization shows the rainfall accumulation in the US during the period 5/27/2016 through 6/9/2016, from the IMERG dataset. The visualization clearly shows the effects of the series of rain storms across Texas during that period.
