TRMM image of tropical depression ONE-E

As predicted ONE-E, the first tropical depression of 2011, formed in the eastern Pacific Ocean early this morning. The image above used data that the TRMM satellite received when it flew over at 0727 UTC on 7 June 2011. A red circle shows the location of ONE-E's center of circulation at that time. ONE-E is expected to intensify and become tropical storm Adrian tomorrow.
