Above, Hurricane Douglas in Vue...

With the recent disaster caused by Mega-Hurricane Katrina I thought some out there might be interested in how to get a reasonably decent looking Hurricane into Vue. I had originally been exploring how to get US Weather Data into Vue (the kind you see on TV when they show animated Hurricane models) and stumbled upon a much more simple idea-using Vue's Terrain Editor.

The next problem was WHERE to get good shots of Hurricanes.
Surprisingly, places like NOAA and the US Weather Service had only small black and white photos on their websites- and then they always had white Long-Lat lines, etc. on them.
