Harold Pierce of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, used GPM data to create images and animations of the rainfall and cloud heights in the storm. Pierce said, "Beryl's remnants still contained areas of strong convective storms as it passed near the island of Dominica. GPM's Microwave Imager (GMI) and Dual-Frequency Precipitation Radar (DPR) instruments showed that strong convective storms northeast of Dominica were dropping rain at a rate of greater than 75 mm (2.95 inches) per hour. "

Dominica is still recovering from Hurricane Maria which devastated the island last year. Most of the homes on Dominica were damaged or destroyed.
