The powerful jets from AGN produce low density bubbles in the ICM of the host galaxy cluster that are observed as X-ray cavities. The morphology of X-ray cavities is influenced by factors such as AGN history and ICM weather. We present 3D magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) simulations of hypersonic AGN jets in realistic cluster environments that explore the relationship between these factors and cavity properties. We will also discuss the consequences on observations of X-ray cavities with synthetic observations of these simulations. This work is supported by the NSF and by the University of Minnesota Supercomputing Institute.
