Brief Instructions:

• All the VRML models are in .gz format, if you're having trouble viewing them, easiest way is to upgrade to Netscape 4.0 or higher, as it has a degzipper built in.
• Most of the interaction in the models is done through viewpoints. Two main viewpoint interactions are "Flyby" which will animate the user's viewpoint, and "Surface Animation", which is available only on Gilbert right now. This will animate the surface of the hurricane.
• The flightpath can be turned on/off by clicking on the hurricane surface. During flyby, clicking on the surface will pause/start the animation.
• The green cones can be clicked to go to a specific camera position.
