It seems that we are going to have another dark, dank, dreary day, coupled with some more rain. It has rained and been overcast overnight, so N.O.A.A. and the Weather Underground model map got it right again. The cloud cover remained at 100% as N.O.A.A. forecast, and it did rain all night. The temperature and relative humidity data are tabulated next:
Temperature: 45°F/45°F//45°F/45°F//45°F/45°F//44°F/46°F:
Relative Humidity: 100%/93%//100%/93%//96%/93%//100/93%:
The forecast and actual temperatures were in almost complete agreement. The relative humidity sensor on my weather station apparently gets no higher than 93%, therefore we need to accept the N.O.A.A. readings of 100% for the overnight. This is a delightful change in the agreement between the actual and forecast data.
For today the predominant weather will once again be rain. The cloud cover is forecast to be 100% until around 16:00 hours when it will drop to 98%. That is not much of a change. The forecast temperature and humidity are detailed next. We may have a ten-degree change in temperature during the day, and the relative humidity is expected to decrease after 13:00 hours.
Temperature: 44°F/48°F/53°F/54°F:
Relative Humidity: 100%/100%/86%/80%:
Our November weather seems to be well above normal for temperature and precipitation. Not too many years ago this would all have been snow, but this year we seem to be having a flow coming straight across the country rather than from the arctic circle. We may not have to pay fore these days, but sooner or later we will pay back for this warm weather, and it may not be pleasant.
My Weather Stick points down, and once again with the relative humidity, rain and fog that should surprise no one. The Weather Station console forecasts stormy weather. The Min/Max Thermometer predicts inclement weather, and the remote weather station forecasts clouds. All three electronic instruments are forecasting deteriorating barometric pressure. It does appear that we will have another cool, damp, dark, dismal and unpleasant day. Can we come up with any more adjectives to describe this weather? The goats and sheep will stay in the barn again today. Even they do not get excited about getting wet.
