You're right Steve, there is mist curling around the treetops across the field. I've never been aware of it so low before!

Re: Odd Cloud Base Reading
I suspect your RH is actually 100%, that's what Milford Haven is showing. Does the Fine Offset go up to 100%, do you know?

Re: Odd Cloud Base Reading
I can answer that - it doesn't - 99% is the maximum it reads.

Sorry, no banner - weather station out of action. Hoping to be up and running with a new home-made one soon.

Re: Odd Cloud Base Reading
Thanks, Gina. I think, then, that we probably need a similar option to the 'use 100% for 98%' setting (which is for the Oregon stations, which only go up to 98%).Gina wrote:I can answer that - it doesn't - 99% is the maximum it reads.

Re: Odd Cloud Base Reading
Using such an option, humidity values would step between 98% and 100%? So one would never see 99%?

Re: Odd Cloud Base Reading
Yes, that's right. Currently you never see 100%, the option would just give you the choice of never seeing 99% instead.Ned wrote:Using such an option, humidity values would step between 98% and 100%? So one would never see 99%?
