These image loops capture Hurricane Dean as it became an increasingly strong category 4 storm during the afternoon and evening of 20 August, 2007.
These GOES-12 visible images have been manipulated to show a three dimensional effect when viewed with red/blue glasses (red lens over the left eye please).
In this JAVA loop the entire storm is shown for 17:15 - 23:32 UTC on 20 August, 2007.
(If you would prefer an animated GIF try this file.)
