This is an example of a cartogaphic animation of Hurricane Katrina's path in 2005.  The map shows a series of movements of the location of the eye of the hurricane over time.  The map also presents the wind speeds of the hurricane during several points of time by the use of colored rings and the strength of the category of the hurricane as it moved.
