A really cool video of 14 Years of US Weather. The dates for the video are May 2, 1997 - Dec 31, 2011. Too bad we can't see Hurricane Andrew in this one, though you may be able to catch Katrina !



quote:

This animation covers over 14 years of United States weather. It is composed of 120,900 individual frames spaced 1 hour apart.

Quicktime was unable to stitch this many images so I had to process it in blocks of 10,000 frames and then edit the individual videos together.

The frame rate is 60 frames (hours) per second, however, youtube only displays 30 frames per second so you are only seeing half of the data as a result. I will re-upload it if youtube ever allows 60fps video.



If you're not really interested in the animation, at least listen to the music in the video, it's quite delightful!
