TITAN Rview animation for 20190803_1424 flight.

  * Rview is displaying data provided from the National Weather Service's WSR-88D radar in Melbourne, Florida (KMLB). Also displayed on the animations is LROSE-TITAN cell-tracking (storm identification) information. A cell is defined by a minimum dBZ threshold of 35 dBZ. The cell tracking information resets every 24 hours (12z - 12z [+1]) to match the daily precipitation cycle the best. 

===== EXAMPLE (ZOOMED) SNAPSHOT =====

This is a snap shot (date not important) to show the user how/what the aircraft track is displaying...

  * The white aircraft track line consists of 300 sec (5 mins) of previous flight data, and 0 sec (0 mins) of future flight track data.
  * The arrow is indicating the direction is aircraft is traveling in.
  * The circle indicates the current aircraft position coinciding with the current timestamp displayed.

Here is the gif animation loop with the zip files provided underneath the animation for the 20190803_1424 flight (35dBZ Titan cell threshold)

  * Blue outlines on the images depict the 35dBZ threshold which defines the cell core. This allows the TITAN algorithm to calculate the corresponding storm information.
