Cyclone Idai rainfall map. Satellite image of the rainfall observed due to Cyclone Idai as it passed inland over Mozambique. The rainfall rate is colour-coded from low (green) through yellow to high (red). The range is from less than millimetres of rain per hour to over 50 millimetres of rain per hour. The cyclone brought winds of over 195 kilometres per hour, devastating the port city of Beira, causing hundreds of death and extensive destruction, with hundreds of thousands affected by flooding. This image was produced for 16 March 2019, using the Integrated Multi-Satellite Retrievals for GPM (IMERG). GPM is Global Precipitation Measurement.
