Satellite & Radar Timelapse - Tropical Cyclone Yasi (Update 3)

*** See the latest version here : http://bit.ly/gZBFnG .

This timelapse uses false colour infrared imagery from JMA's MTSAT geostationary satellite & radar data from the Australia BoM to track the path of the Tropical Cyclone Yasi as it forms and heads towards the Queensland Coast. It has passed directly over the Willis Island radar which allows the Eye to be clearly seen by the radar and satellite imagery, and has now formed into a category 5 storm. It is expected to make landfall around 10pm tonight AEST.

I think that these natural disasters will get worse and spread across the world... and i believe that Australia sets a superb example of how people can deal with these disasters as a community. In comparison to Hurricane Katrina and how that was dealt with; the world can learn from Australia, that the only way to get through these things is to prepare, stick together and to care for one-another. It's the luckiest country in the world if you ask me. They look after each other.
