[Editor’s note: I produced this mashup in real time for The Washington Post a couple weekend’s ago when Hurricane Hanna blew into the DC area as a tropical storm. This mashup was the main graphic lead on the homepage for a couple hours. A week later, the Houston Chronicle pulled off a similar exercise for Gustov.]
