Check this out this incredible animation of hurricane isabel!its a movie made from occasional bursts of 8 images at one-minute intervals. Notice the mesocale swirls in the eye, particularly the 5-armed "starfish" cloud formation at the beginning of the sequence.http://goes.gsfc.nasa.gov/pub/goes/QTmovies/030912.isabel.mov :eek: :eek: :eek:
