CoastalWx Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 So Kevin uses BDL tarmac to verify his temps and a heavily forested meso site for his dew verification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Hmm. All FTL. No like we discussed the other day..They are correct and are products of environment. Most people live in areas like these..not on airport tarmacs. We use BDL only because it is one of the official 4 SNE sites. Otherwise I'd be fine using MBY as official Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 See Dendrite, Ryan, et al. Dendrite agreed with me..Scroll back and look. Ryan was blabbering about something, but didn't say one way or the other. He said something about his sensor in his yard being near the ground..then later said he didn't even have one lol. Anyone..esp a met..that doesn't have a wx station or at least a thermo at their home..isn't going to be taken seriously by anyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Look, my point as well as others is that some meso sites give a real extremely local result for things like dewpoints, especially in the summer because of vegetation. Your backyard sensor will say one thing, but then move it out to the street..guaranteed it drops a degree or two. Than move it down the street...probably another result. I don't understand why people can't grasp that. Soil moisture and vegetation and locally effect dewpoints. Stations like BDL and ORH have trees and/or fields all around it. It's not like dewpoints will drop 5 degrees because of a runway strip...they are all reasonable approximations to the boundary layer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 We'll leave it at that. I don't think we are all disagreeing that it's wrong..it's just that vegetation can cause highly localized variance in things like dews and even temps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 And yes dewpoints near 70 are expected especially on the south coast. I mentioned this earlier. They will have the highest dews, due to proximity to water and limited mixing. Always happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginx snewx Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 All we needed to know. Thanks Actually 72 now and its no where near vegetation but the coast is 5 miles as the crow flies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eekuasepinniW Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 81/68 which exactly matches the awos 3 miles away so you dewpoint harassers better back off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
