Fractal Coding: Hurricane Data Visualization

So basically my final project was to create a slightly interactive data visualization chart, right?
But what, I could do that 3 days after first learning Processing. I wanted a challenge that actually felt like a final project to me. 36 or so hours later, I ended up with four charts, three of which are interactive and immersive, and a menu-based interaction system.

Basically, paste these code snippets into various tabs of Processing and execute them. Alternatively download the zip file of the project from GitHub. Bearing in mind there's close to a thousand lines of code (over 900 at least), I'm going to post my YouTube video explaining it first.
