July 9th, 2026 Timelapse
On July 9th, the day began with a gentle atmosphere, as surface winds averaged around 4.1 mph, while winds at 100 meters reached a slightly brisker 6.7 mph. The sky was adorned with a mix of clouds, with an average cloud cover of 61.5%, primarily consisting of low clouds at 44.3% and high clouds at 41.8%, creating a textured ceiling overhead. This cloud cover was influenced by the wind dynamics, as the stronger winds aloft caused the lower clouds to drift towards the east, while the upper layers exhibited a slower movement. Despite the abundant cloud cover, no precipitation was recorded, allowing for a rather serene morning in terms of moisture. The gentle wind flow at the surface was complemented by a notable wind shear between the surface and the 100-meter altitude, leading to a subtle turbulence that added a dynamic feel to the morning's stillness.
As the day progressed into midday, conditions shifted dramatically. The surface winds picked up to an average of 6.1 mph, while the winds at 100 meters increased to 8.2 mph, indicating a consistent strengthening trend. The cloud cover dissipated significantly to an average of just 4.8%, with low clouds dropping to 1.5% and high clouds to a mere 3.2%. This marked clearing of the skies was a result of the increasing warmth and the higher altitude winds carrying away any remnants of cloud cover. The conflict between the stronger winds aloft and the lighter surface winds created some turbulence, particularly as the high-altitude clouds moved swiftly, casting rapid shadows over the landscape below. With temperatures rising to an average of 67.1°F, the midday sun began to assert itself, further enhancing the serene conditions.
By the evening, the skies were completely clear, showcasing a stunning blue expanse as the winds continued to gain strength. Surface winds averaged 10.2 mph, while the winds at 100 meters reached an impressive 14.9 mph, reflecting a steady increase throughout the day. With no cloud cover remaining, the evening presented a pristine sky, allowing for an unobstructed view of the sunset as temperatures cooled slightly to an average of 67.0°F. The absence of clouds, combined with the strong winds at higher altitudes, led to a stable atmosphere devoid of turbulence, creating a peaceful end to the day. This striking transition from a cloudy morning to an unblemished evening sky beautifully illustrated the interplay of wind, temperature, and cloud dynamics across the day.
