August 7th, 2026 Timelapse
On August 7th, the day began under a blanket of low clouds, with the average cloud cover hanging around 68%. At the surface level, winds were gentle, averaging only 3.5 mph, while at 100 meters, they picked up slightly to 5.3 mph. The calmness at lower altitudes allowed the low clouds to drift lazily across the sky, their presence a clear indicator of the moisture in the air. The temperature was a cool 58.9°F, which contributed to the dense feeling of the morning atmosphere. Although there was no precipitation, the thick cloud deck hinted at potential dampness. With the winds at the surface and aloft moving in similar directions, the overall stability of the air mass meant little turbulence, allowing for a tranquil morning visual in the skies.
As midday approached, the weather underwent a noticeable transformation. The cloud cover decreased dramatically to just 1.8%, revealing patches of blue sky and allowing sunlight to warm the air to an average temperature of 72.3°F. Winds at the surface picked up slightly to an average of 4.3 mph, while winds at 100 meters increased to 5.7 mph. The gentle lift created by the warming ground helped disperse the remaining low clouds, which quickly scattered into wisps. The lack of significant wind shear meant that the transition was smooth, with the low-level winds aligning closely with the winds aloft. The change in dynamics led to an open sky where clouds moved swiftly, almost playfully across the expanse, a stark contrast to the morning's heavy layer.
By the evening, the skies had cleared entirely, resulting in a 0% cloud cover that showcased the fading light of dusk. Winds at the surface reached an average of 8.2 mph, while at 100 meters, they increased to 12.2 mph, signaling a more vigorous flow aloft. This shift created a sense of movement in the atmosphere, with the faster winds at higher altitudes contrasting sharply against the slower surface winds. The evening temperature settled at a comfortable 71.4°F, perfect for outdoor activities as the sun dipped below the horizon. The absence of clouds, combined with the freshening winds, provided an expansive view of the evening sky, concluding a day that began with a shroud of clouds and ended in a serene, clear atmosphere.
