isabel

This data is from a simulation of hurricane Isabel in 2003. It includes
temperature and wind data for a 2139km (east-west) x 2004km (north-south) x
19.8km (vertical) volume. The simluation data is from the National Center
for Atmospheric Research, and it was used in the IEEE Visualization 2004
Contest.
