It would be interesting to see how they relate to each other......
Not the info from Tim Vasquez, but I have added an image from BEA's track plot for 02:14:30 to my Googleearth layers for AF447. The dark orange part of the storm nearly fills the 40nm radius search circle. The BEA track/weather images are here:
Flight Paths of Flight AF 447 and of the flights that crossed the zone around the same time
Note the scale of these images: the coast of Brazil is in the lower left corner. The dashed lines through the center are the equator (0.0 lat) and 30 deg W longitude. I assume the weather is from a satellite image; I don't know what the colors represent (maybe cloud temperature).
I have cut a section with an overlay of the 40nm circle (in the grey box):
