Ginx snewx Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 for fun, run your temp and humidity or DP through this calculator . Canada uses humidity in their equations, they call it the humidex formula, as you will see its lower than HI. http://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/html/heatindex.shtml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TalcottWx Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Fwiw we had some cirrus debris filtering sun early but sky is clearer now...here we go!Noticed that.. also noticed it was filtering the sky more to the east than west. Man scorcher.. i got one of the luckiest jobs in company today. Removing trash from business school and driving it back to the shop by fresh pond.. thats a half hour drive. The unloading and loading takes time and sweat but I might manage to stretch this out until past lunch time!!! Nice surprising break on the day from Hell.

Ginx snewx Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Mine were the same but not knowing the calculation behind the number, you can calculate the dew point from the relative humidity so are they doing that? My bad, Canada uses a different formula, The humidex (short for "humidity index") is an index number used by Canadian meteorologists to describe how hot the weather feels to the average person, by combining the effect of heat and humidity. The humidex is a unit-less number based on the dew point, but it is equivalent to dry temperature in degrees Celsius. For example, if the temperature is 30 °C (86 °F), and the calculated humidex is 40, then it indicates the humid heat feels approximately like a dry temperature of 40 °C (104 °F). According to the Meteorological Service of Canada, a humidex of at least 30 causes "some discomfort", at least 40 causes "great discomfort" and above 45 is "dangerous". When the humidex hits 54, heat stroke is imminent. The current formula for determining the humidex was developed by J.M. Masterton and F.A. Richardson of Canada's Atmospheric Environment Service in 1979. Humidex differs from the heat index used in theUnited States in being derived from the dew point rather than the relative humidit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say good riddance. It's been awful here--not temp wise but moisture/humidity/dampness. I've seen mold growing in places that I've never seen before and water seeping from hillsides and banks where it normally does only in the spring, right after snow-melt/ ground-thaw.

CT Rain Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Different vegetation. Last I checked bananas don't grow in the wild here. They do on Mount Tolland in the summer and are replaced by glaciers in the winter. Come on man you should know that by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
