How Did The Weather Channel Make This Hurricane Graphic?

The Weather Channel is attracting lots of attention for its eye-popping graphics that vividly illustrate the danger of storm surges. Viewers are loving the images, which look almost like a video game, complete with floating cars and digital fish. The Weather Channel uses the technology for other extreme weather events, including a 3D visualization of a tornado. “Best visual I’ve ever seen!” one social media comment read. Even late night TV host Stephen Colbert had something to say.
