Humidity The amount of water vapor in the air.. Expressed two ways Relative Humidity Dew Point.

The Earth is surrounded by a thin blanket of air called the atmosphere.

Dew Point The temperature that the air needs to be cooled to reach saturation (100% humidity) Cooling the air below the dew point causes the water vapor.

What Causes Weather?. Weather Scientists gather information about: Temperature Water vapor Wind Air pressure.

 The condition of Earth’s atmosphere at a particular time and place.

Definition: Weather is the state of the atmosphere at a specific time and place. Weather is the result of heat from the sun and earth's air and water.

All Sensors Note: Be sure you have already selected your station and time interval before choosing this product.

All Sensors Air Temp The temperature of the air in units you selected. Dew Point Calculated using air temperature and relative humidity.

All Sensors Wind Chill How cold it actually feels. Calculated using temperature, relative humidity and wind speed. Relative Humidity Percentage of water in the air

Wind speed How fast the wind is blowing in miles per hour. Wind direction Referenced to a 360º circle. The direction the wind is blowing from. All Sensors

Leaf Wetness Emulates periods of leaf wetness after rainfall, dew or spray. Total Precipitation Amount of rainfall in inches. All Sensors

Battery Voltage Useful in tracking battery life Solar Radiation A measurement of the sun’s radiation used in calculating ET. NOTE: ET refers to loss of water from the soil by both evaporation and transpiration from plants. All Sensors

Soil temperature Temperature of the soil is generally measured at 8 inches. Soil moisture The amount of moisture in the soil, usually read at 8 inches, as relative to amount of rainfall that has occurred. All Sensors
