Animated map of 2005 hurricanes

Permalinks to this entry: individual page or in monthly context. For more material from my journal, visit my home page or the archive.

You can click on either of the images on this NASA page for an extraordinary MPEG animation showing all the 21 major storms in the Atlantic and Caribbean so far this season (it finishes before Wilma gets very far). It takes only a couple of minutes to watch (if you have a broadband connection), and shows the remarkable power of the Gulf Stream and the warm water of the Gulf if Mexico in shaping and directing the storms.
