Summary

Description On June 6, 2003, the MODIS instrument onboard NASA’s Terra satellite captured this bird’s-eye view of Tropical Cyclone Gina as it was located approximately 495 miles (792 km) north-northwest of Noumea, New Caledonia. Gina was packing sustained winds near 89 miles per hour (mph) with higher gusts to 104 mph. Since this strong low pressure system is located south of the equator, the winds associated with Gina are spinning in a clockwise motion.
