Simulated Tropical Cyclone Seasons: A Question

#1 Postby 404UserNotFound » Thu Apr 10, 2014 9:57 pm

In order to tide me (and the rest of us) over during lulls, I was thinking about simulated tropical cyclone seasons. However, I've noticed that they're extremely hard to find in video format. So I thought to ask the community: do you know of any videos of a simulated IR view, à la this?

(I know that the GFDL site also has at least one.)

Thanks in advance.

Do you mean Single TC Satellite loops. If that is what you're looking for then they can be found on YouTube.

No, I'm not looking for those. I'm talking about a purely fictional season of storms, determined via computer modeling. In other words, an initial state (which should be already chosen) is plugged in, and the (hypothetical) season plays itself out. (This is sounding more and more like a cellular automaton.)

Also note that this does not have to take place in the Atlantic, but both examples that I found had the "camera" centered there.
