Initial experiments

Thunder:

In the experiment I wanted to the user to be able to create clouds and thunder.  You click up the top of the screen to place clouds.  The clouds will get darker the more you place them.  When they reach a certain darkness thunder will occur when you place a cloud.

Rain:

In this application I was experimenting with rain.  I want the rain to follow the mouse but if you stop moving the mouse the rain will stop.


Tornado:

Here I created a tornado, which increases and decreases in size depending on the height of the mouse.  At the moment I've just got the tornado sound playing when you click but I want the sound to get louder and quieter depending on the size of the tornado.


Rain and wind:

In this application I increased the velocity of the particles as you click.  I want it so that you can make it rain but as you keep clicking the wind will pick up and the wind sound will increase.  I think this will be a nice progression into the tornado.
