February 15th, 2026 Timelapse
On February 15th, the day commenced under a shroud of thick clouds, setting the stage for a rather overcast morning. Surface winds averaged a gentle 4.0 mph, providing little movement at ground level. However, winds at 100 meters were noticeably stronger, reaching an average of 7.1 mph, creating a subtle clash between the slower surface wind and the more vigorous upper flow. This difference in speed contributed to a layered cloud formation, with low clouds dominating the scene at 81.5% cover and mid-level clouds adding to the complexity at 51.5%. The overall cloud cover was thick, leading to a damp, gray atmosphere, and even a bit of light precipitation was recorded—just enough to wet surfaces without causing any significant disruption.
As midday approached, the sky became even more densely packed with clouds, with the total cloud cover soaring to an impressive 98.2%. The low clouds remained pronounced at 98.2%, while mid-level clouds dramatically reduced to a mere 11.2%, leaving high clouds almost nonexistent. Wind conditions showed minimal change at surface level, maintaining that steady 4.0 mph, but winds at 100 meters decreased slightly to an average of 5.4 mph. This minor shift created an interesting dynamic, as the upper winds began to align more closely with the slower-moving surface winds. These interactions often lead to turbulence, which was observable in the swirling patterns of the clouds that rushed across the sky, driven by the stronger winds aloft while remaining anchored by the slower surface layers.
By the evening, conditions began to shift again, with cloud cover decreasing to 40.5%. The low clouds settled to 33.8%, while mid clouds increased slightly to 17.5%, creating a more varied sky. Surface winds dropped to an average of 2.2 mph, while the winds at 100 meters fell to 4.5 mph, resulting in a calmer atmosphere as the day wound down. This drop in wind speed contributed to a reduction in turbulence, allowing for more stable cloud formations. The evening light subtly peeked through the thinning clouds, casting a soft glow that contrasted with the day’s earlier dreariness. The day concluded with temperatures hovering around 44.2°F, reflecting a mild yet changeable winter day, where the weather patterns danced continuously from morning through evening, creating a captivating tapestry in the sky.
