Warm, clear and how to convert celsius to Fahrenheit
Good morning Augusta.
This morning it is overcast in the morning, then mostly cloudy. High of 75F. Winds from the South at 5 to 10 mph.
Tonight it will be partly cloudy with a chance of a thunderstorm and a chance of rain after midnight. Low of 57F. Winds from the SSE at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 50%.
The readings from my own instruments are:
The humidity is 82% with a Dew Point of 54.6ºF and a wind chill of 60.1ºF.
The temperature is 60.1ºF.
We have South winds barely puffing today, between 0.0 MPH and 1.0 MPH.
Our Barometric pressure is 30.10 HPA 1019.3 and rising with a weather graphic indicating sun.
The UV rating is 1 out of 16, sunset will be at 7:55 PM with Moon Rise at 6:22 a.m. and the moon phase is a New Moon.
For the pilots out there, Raw Metar readings are:
METAR KAUG 071053Z AUTO 15003KT 10SM CLR 13/11 A3019 RMK AO2 SLP225 T01280111
Visibility is 10.0 miles/16.1 kilometers with clear conditions again today.
We've had no rain here in the past 24 hours.
Have you ever wondered what the difference between ºF. and ºC. is?
Here is how you convert Fahrenheit to Celsius (and Vice Versa)
Fahrenheit is the temperature scale proposed in 1724 by, and named after, the physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit (1686–1736). Today, it is mostly used in the United States and a few other countries; the rest of the world uses Celsius. So what if you're in a country that uses one and you want to convert it to the other? Here is the difference.
Fahrenheit
On the Fahrenheit scale, the freezing point of water is 32 degrees Fahrenheit (°F), and the boiling point is 212°F (at standard atmospheric pressure). There are 180 equal divisions between the freezing temperature of water and its boiling point. Each division is a Fahrenheit degree.
Celsius
On the Celsius scale, the freezing point of water is 0 degrees Celsius (°C), and the boiling point of water is 100°C (at standard atmospheric pressure). There are 100 equal divisions between the freezing temperature of water and its boiling point. Each division is a Celsius degree.
Therefore: A temperature interval of 1 °F is equal to an interval of 5⁄9 degrees Celsius.
Note of interest: The Fahrenheit and Celsius scales intersect at −40° (−40 °F and −40 °C represent the same temperature).
Fahrenheit remains the official scale of the United States, Cayman Islands, Palau, Bahamas and Belize.
The Rankine temperature scale was based upon the Fahrenheit temperature scale, with its zero representing absolute zero instead.
Absolute Zero is defined as −273.15 °C or −459.67 °F. The Rankine temperature scale was created to use degree intervals the same size as those of the Fahrenheit scale, such that a temperature difference of one degree Rankine (1 R) is equal to a difference of 1 °F, except that absolute zero is 0 R – the same way that the Kelvin temperature scale matches the Celsius scale, except that absolute zero is 0 K.
*What causes "Sea Smoke"?
Sea smoke, or arctic steam fog, is a cloud over the sea, which could otherwise be called fog, and is usually formed when very cold air moves over warmer water. The physics are in principle similar to lake-effect snow.
Evaporation from exposed water surface depends upon its vapor pressure. If the water temperature is greater than that of the nearby air, the evaporation continues faster than the air can absorb the water vapor, even though the cool air's relative humidity is 100%. This further evaporates immediately and re-condenses as visible fog, which rises up in convective currents. If the wind blows across cold icy areas like the Arctic, the breaks in the ice sheets where clear water is exposed, the water surface steams up into the air, producing fog.
The conditions required for such fog formation include not only low surface temperature but also a preexisting surface inversion of temperature to inhibit the rapid development of instability.
