On Sept. 22 at 4:15 a.m. EDT (0915 UTC) NASA's Aqua satellite analyzed Tropical Storm Lowell's cloud top temperatures and found strongest storms (yellow) were around Lowell's center of circulation and pushed into its southern quadrant. Temperatures in those areas were as cold as minus 80 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 62.2 Celsius). An area of strong storms with cloud top temperatures as cold as minus 70 degrees (red) Fahrenheit (minus 56.6. degrees Celsius) surrounded the center.
