Dear Simi,

Is not possible load the TRMM data automatic, i.e. using FTP or other program, you have to choose by hand the files and download.

Regards  

A very simple way is using the LDEO-Data library:

here the direct link to the TRMM Version.7

http://iridl.ldeo.columbia.edu/SOURCES/.NASA/.GES-DAAC/.TRMM_L3/.TRMM_3B42RT/.v7/

you can select a region, a period, ect.

Finally you can simply download data in many different formats. 

Regards,

Here is the FTP link to TRMM 3B42 V7 data:

ftp://disc2.nascom.nasa.gov/ftp/data/s4pa//TRMM_L3/TRMM_3B42

If you go one folder up, you can see the rest of products as well.

Best,

You can also try here http://gdata1.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/daac-bin/G3/gui.cgi?instance_id=TRMM_3B42RT for the real-time product or here http://gdata1.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/daac-bin/G3/gui.cgi?instance_id=TRMM_3-Hourly for the research product. You can find both version 6 and 7. You can select your geographic area and download the data in HDF, NetCDF or ASCII formats.
