NASA Image Sees Opening In Linda's Eyewall

Caption

NASA's Aqua satellite AIRS and AMSU instrument data created a microwave image of Hurricane Linda on Sept. 10 at 6:41 a.m. EDT. The cold areas in this image (yellow-green) indicate where there is precipitation or ice in the cloud tops. The microwave image suggests cold, high thunderstorms, and a partial opening in her eyewall.
