Video Showing Storm Tracking Tools for Google Earth
In order to give people a better idea of how you can use Google Earth to track storms, I've put together this YouTube video showing a sample of the possibilities. The visualizations you see in this video are available to anyone with Google Earth by using a collection of tools which were developed by both weather professionals and hobbyists who have shared their tools with the public. You can get these tools yourself and become your own weather man. Read my article on the best storm tracking tools for Google Earth. Here's the video:

Stefan Geens of OgleEarth shows you some other available tools which you could use to make yourself into a YouTube weather forecaster. See his article about making your own Google Earth backdrop to a video broadcast. Here's his first try with the tools (ignore the gray stuff in the first few seconds):

Actually, by what's in the photos that Stefan posted, it looks like he was using the Space Navigator.
I made an added proposal at my own blog this morning once I saw Stefan's demonstration.
Feel free to take a look.

Cool, and Stefan should use a Space Navigator for future shows ;-)
