Donna,
You can ouput images to gif format which can be used for loops of
animated gifs for web browsers such as is shown in the lightning example at:
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/gempak/examples/lightning/lightning.html
Gif sequences can also be converted into MPEGS with mpeg_encode or
ImageMagick. Examples are shown at:

Ntrans can also be used to animate images created with the nc (metafile) driver.
