September 7th, 2026 Timelapse
On September 7th, the day began with a gentle, overcast sky that set a tranquil stage for the morning. Surface winds were calm, averaging around 2.8 mph, while wind speeds at 100 meters rose slightly to 4.1 mph. This subtle wind gradient contributed to the movement of cloud cover, which was predominantly low-level, comprising about 64.2% of the overall cloud cover that averaged 66.2%. The low clouds lingered, creating a soft, gray atmosphere as temperatures hovered near 56.7°F. While no precipitation was recorded at that moment, the moisture-laden atmosphere hinted at the possibility. Despite the gentle surface winds, some turbulence was noted due to conflicting wind directions at different altitudes, creating a few swirls in the cloud formations that danced overhead.
As the day progressed into midday, conditions began to shift noticeably. The surface winds decreased further to an average of 1.9 mph, while winds at 100 meters dropped to 2.5 mph, reflecting a stagnation in the lower atmosphere. The cloud cover thinned significantly to about 34.8%, with low clouds dropping to 22% and mid-level clouds rising to 19.8%. This transition allowed for limited glimpses of blue sky, though the overall moisture remained present, leading to a light drizzle that contributed 0.02 inches of precipitation. The dynamics of cloud movement became more pronounced, as the upper layers of clouds began to drift more freely, contrasting the slower-moving low-level clouds. The calm surface winds and the more active upper winds created an interesting interplay, and while turbulence was less pronounced than in the morning, some wind shear was present as the layers began to interact more actively.
In the evening, the weather took on a different character as conditions became more dynamic once again. Surface winds picked up to an average of 5.9 mph, while winds at 100 meters increased further to 9.2 mph. This change in the wind pattern resulted in a noticeable increase in cloud cover to approximately 48%, with low clouds rising to 45% and mid-level clouds remaining at 8.7%. The presence of stronger winds aloft stirred the remaining clouds, creating a layered effect that added depth to the evening sky. While the precipitation had subsided, the turbulence from the conflicting wind directions at various altitudes allowed for some dramatic cloud formations. As the sun set, temperatures stabilizing around 64.6°F provided the backdrop for a beautifully textured sky, reflective of the varied wind interactions throughout the day.
