I'm editing a US picture to make it this "Weather Sandbox".

So far... this is it:

*Changed "Simulation Options" a bit (not done)
*Changed the search bar
*Changed the body properties (not done)

I want to add: largest closed isobar.

WTF is Weather Sandbox

[Darvince]

It's an image edit.

I like where this is headed.

[atomic7732]

Thanks. I forgot all about it.

Do you like it enough that you'll make it?

Tracks would look like this.

Darkness depends on pressure deepness. Color varies on core-temperature and symmetry.

Asymmetric cold: Red
Symmetric cold: Gray
Asymmetric warm: Green
Symmetric warm (hurricanes): Yellow

I will modify it in a bit.

Chart mode could have by Pressure (in a line like mass), Phase diagrams^link (3d cubes), and other things.

I just figured out how to do an Isobar view... use some type of metaball to create highs and lows on a surface... then somehow use some topography feature to create lines that are the isobars...

I have only about half a clue what I'm gonna do... but here's my start at "Weather Sandbox"

Code:

public class test {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        double[][] pressureData;
     pressureData = new double[50][50];

     pressureData[0][5] = 1001.5;

     System.out.println ("The pressure at point 0N 5W is: " + pressureData[0][5]);

    }
}

When you start a new simulation, it'll let you select: North America, Atlantic, Pacific... idk other stuff maybe.

I just need to know how you make an interface in Java... I have no idea...
