September 22nd, 2026 Timelapse
On September 22nd, morning conditions began with a gentle breeze near the surface, averaging 4.3 mph, creating a calm atmosphere. However, winds at 100 meters were slightly stronger, averaging 6.6 mph, suggesting a gentle lift in the air aloft. The low cloud cover was thick and pervasive, with an average of 82%, cloaking the landscape in a hazy shroud. Stratus clouds dominated at lower altitudes, while visibility remained limited due to the absence of mid and high clouds. With temperatures around 57.4°F, the air felt cool and damp, but there was no precipitation to speak of. This blanket of cloud cover, combined with light winds, created a stable environment, although the lack of movement in the lower levels contributed to a sense of stagnation, with little turbulence to disrupt the tranquility.
As the day progressed toward midday, the clouds began to dissipate dramatically, reducing cover to just 11.2%. This shift coincided with a slight increase in surface wind speeds to an average of 4.5 mph and a slight decrease in the winds aloft at 100 meters to 6.0 mph. The lingering low clouds, which had previously cast a gray pall over the landscape, gradually thinned, allowing patches of blue sky to emerge. The light winds at the surface continued to support a calm atmosphere, while the reduction in cloud cover revealed the sun's warmth, nudging temperatures up to an average of 64.6°F. The interaction between the surface and upper winds remained relatively smooth throughout this period, suggesting little turbulence, but it was clear that the transition from overcast to a more open sky was underway, creating an inviting backdrop for the rest of the day.
By evening, the weather settled into a pleasantly mild state, with surface winds picking up a bit to 8.0 mph and winds at 100 meters increasing to 12.4 mph. The cloud cover fell to a mere 1.0%, with only a smattering of low and high clouds remaining, mostly indicating a clear sky ahead. The combination of warmer temperatures, averaging 64.1°F, and the relatively gentle breeze created a serene atmosphere. As the day came to a close, the high-altitude winds at 120 meters were becoming slightly more noticeable, leading to some interesting layering effects, although turbulence was minimal due to the overall smooth conditions. The evening sky was marked by the fading light of sunset, further enhancing the beauty of the day’s transition from a cloudy morning to a clear, tranquil evening.
