October 13th, 2026 Timelapse
On October 13th, morning conditions began with a gentle breeze at the surface, averaging just 2.1 mph, while at 100 meters, stronger winds were recorded at 3.7 mph. This subtle difference in wind speed contributed to a complex cloud cover that was nearly complete, with an impressive 92.8% cloud cover overall. Low clouds represented 17.2% of the cover, while mid-level clouds dominated at 91.8%, and high clouds accounted for 18.8%. The cool morning temperature hovered around 45.7°F, creating a damp atmosphere that hinted at the possibility of rain, but none materialized. The calm surface winds contrasted with the slightly higher winds aloft, creating a gentle turbulence as the different layers moved in varying directions. The clouds drifted slowly, adding a textured look to the sky, while the low-level winds shifted direction at times, causing a subtle dance among the cloud layers.
As the day progressed into midday, the wind patterns remained relatively stable but began to exhibit slight changes. Surface winds increased marginally to an average of 2.7 mph, while winds at 100 meters dipped slightly to 3.6 mph. By this time, cloud cover intensified to almost total saturation at 99.5%, with low clouds rising to 29.2%, mid clouds dropping to 65.8%, and high clouds surging to an impressive 86%. The combination of high cloud cover and the gentle winds aloft caused the clouds to stretch and swirl, creating an ethereal atmosphere. This layering produced intriguing visual effects, as wispy high clouds rushed by at a different pace compared to the denser mid and low clouds below. The conflict between the mild surface winds and slightly faster winds aloft resulted in visible turbulence, leading to a dynamic sky that shifted in texture throughout the midday hours.
As evening approached, conditions began to shift once again. The surface wind dropped to an average of just 1.3 mph, reflecting a tranquil atmosphere, while winds at 100 meters diminished to 2.3 mph. The cloud cover decreased significantly to 59.2%, with low clouds retreating to just 5.2%, mid clouds to 11.8%, and high clouds remaining more prevalent at 52.8%. The cooler evening temperature rose slightly to an average of 58.4°F, showcasing a transition in the atmosphere. The diminishing cloud cover allowed for glimpses of blue sky, as the remaining high clouds lingered, creating a soft contrast against the fading daylight. The turbulence that once characterized the midday hours diminished, leaving behind a peaceful evening sky where the last layers of clouds gently drifted apart, hinting at the calm that often follows a day of dynamic weather.
