now-Tropical Storm Ivan
Relief! You can see from this image, taken at 12:30pm today, that Ivan is dissipating.
The small red circle marks the location of Radford University; specifically, the location of Curie Hall and the RUSMART HRPT antenna.
Click on the image below for a closeup showing the main part of the remains of Ivan.

Earlier today:
Ivan is stalling on land, and dropping a great deal of the moisture accumulated from his time of formation.
Over land, hurricanes cool and can no longer draw thermal energy from the warmer ocean below.
Cooler air can not hold as much moisture as warmer air, and the moisture falls out as (torrents of) rain.

You can see Ivan's cumulative path from the previous "Images of the Day".
