I looked at the NEXRAD composite radar, the satellite map, the Weather Underground model map and the N.O.A.A. forecast graphic maps, and I could not see any clouds on any of them for our area. When it became light enough I looked outside and found the sky to be partly cloudy with cirrus clouds. The temperature is in the low twenties, but the wind is calm, so the temperature you feel is the one recorded on the thermometer. We had no precipitation overnight, and the cloud cover appears to be close to the forecast level. The temperature and relative humidity data is tabulated next.
Temperature: 34°F/28°F//30°F/27°F//27°F/27°F//25°F/23°F:
Relative Humidity: 64%/65%//85%/81%//88%/85%//92%/86%:
The greatest difference between the forecast and actual temperature was six degrees. The rest of the data was very close to the forecast data. The largest difference between the forecast and actual relative humidity was six percent, the rest being much closer than that. This comparison is quite favorable this morning.
The N.O.A.A. forecast is calling for some fog in our area early this morning, but I have not seen it yet. Once that fog (if it happens) burns off there is not supposed to be any precipitation. The cloud cover is predicted to remain moderate, in the mid-forties to mid-fifties (45%/44%/44%/55%). The temperature and relative humidity forecast data is tabulated next.
Temperature: 24°F/40°F/50°F/47°F:
Relative Humidity: 88%/55%/46%/53%:
Assuming the forecast is accurate, we should have a very pleasant day.
My Weather Stick points down, and with the relative humidity over 85% that is no surprise. My Weather Station Console and the remote weather station predict partly cloudy skies with deteriorating barometric pressure. The Min/Max Thermometer predicts rain. We seem to be heading into a period of unsettled weather, and I will just leave it at that. Note the red sky this morning!
