You can get the colour transition using the colorRamp or colorRampPalette functions. For example, to get 12 colours from red through yellow to green, use

colorRampPalette(c("red", "yellow", "green"), space="Lab")(12)

This will put yellow in the middle of the range. If the mean isn't in the middle, you'll need something a little more complicated involving colorRamp. It returns a function mapping the numbers 0 to 1 into the colours you specify; you'll need to write your own function that maps (min, mean, max) to (0, 0.5, 1) in some way.

I was able to figure something like out when using filled.contour(...), e.g.
filled.contour(ak.fan, levels = c(70, 73, 76, 80, 90), color = terrain.colors)
(I still couldn't get the Red->yellow->green transition figured out for this
example...ugh...need more caffeine)

I am hoping a similar amount of control is available using image:

library(akima)

hyp_distance<-seq(1,15)
angle_deg_val<-seq(0,15)


x_distance_val<-NULL
y_distance_val<-NULL

for(ii in 1:length(hyp_distance))
{
        for(jj in 1:length(angle_deg_val))
        {
                x_distance_tmp<-hyp_distance[ii]*cos(angle_deg_val[jj]*pi/180)
                y_distance_tmp<-hyp_distance[ii]*sin(angle_deg_val[jj]*pi/180)

                x_distance_val<-c(x_distance_val, x_distance_tmp)
                y_distance_val<-c(y_distance_val, y_distance_tmp)
        }
}

temperature_vals<-rnorm(length(x_distance_val), 75, 2.2)

temp_samples<-cbind(x_distance_val, y_distance_val, temperature_vals)
ak.fan<- interp(temp_samples[,1],temp_samples[,2],temp_samples[,3] )
filled.contour(ak.fan, levels = c(70, 73, 76, 80, 90), color = terrain.colors)

image(ak.fan)
