I want pictures of hurricanes but it would also help to disect normal afternoon storm. ABCactionnews/wfts has TITAN and i think its just amazing.
if these images are available now, where?

Do you mean the fly by things that TV weathercasters use?

They lose something in accuracy IMO.

Who remembers the 3D radar TWC had when Hurricane Isabel came in?

I don't remember those. Fox 26 here in Houston has been showing a 3-D version of it's new radar and IMO it's just annoying. You can't really see where the precip is.

I'm glad you guys enjoy the 3-D images! I haven't checked out that loop yet though....

20 years? We will have these "toys" much sooner then that. 6 years from now is more likely. You mean real time images and loops in 3-D right?
