Cold Water Trails from Hurricanes Fabian and Isabel

Visualizations by Greg Shirah Released on September 30, 2003

As the hurricanes move through the ocean, they each leave a wake of cold water. This visualization shows the cold water trails left by Hurricanes Fabian and Isabel. The red/orange/blue colors represent the ocean temperatures (orange/red is 82 degrees F and higher).
