My first You-Tube video



I started making this one day when i checked the weather and saw a stunning mid-latitude cyclone over much of the US. I wrote a little script to grab the current viable water vapor image off the net, and stitch them together in a video.

These large scale vortices are common around the globe, and match (in structure) a lot of the smaller scale vortices I study in the lab.
