Hurricane Michael as seen by SMAP

On Oct. 9, 2018 at about 4:30pm EDT, the NASA Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) Radiometer got one more snap shot of Hurricane Michael. The radiance acquired by the SMAP L-band Microwave Radiometer can see through clouds and rain, and is sensitive to the extreme ocean surface winds under a tropical storm or hurricane. Hurricane Michael made landfall in the Florida panhandle Wednesday as a major Category 4 storm.
