Tropical Storm Claudette has continued to move toward the Texas and Northeastern Mexico coast today. The red tropical storm symbol on the "Topdown" view shows the location of the center of circulation which continues to be southwest of the main area of convection.

The total area seen by the TRMM microwave imager (TMI) is seen as the lighter area of blue and the colorful swath of the Precipitation Radar reveals the intensity of precipitation within the storm.
