That is, air at the surface becomes saturated over warmer water, and then that clear but humid air moves over cooler water, were it gets cooled below it's dewpoint. Am I correct?<br /><br />AnselAnselhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13835758313287462921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-58986653207214686192012-06-14T04:33:53.327-07:002012-06-14T04:33:53.327-07:00http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/IOTD/view.php?id=...http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/IOTD/view.php?id=78208<br /><br />Kinda neat Aqua MODIS image from near Australia a couple weeks back showing the effects of a high pressure system on ocean clouds.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15342967219037330518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-78526430015392293082012-06-13T19:12:22.554-07:002012-06-13T19:12:22.554-07:00Cliff, although I see what looks like typical Jun...Cliff, although I see what looks like typical June weather on your photos and maps, still my overall sense this year is that there are a few more closed lows and fast moving troughs than usual.<br /><br />Is that my imagination?<br /><br />ThanksJohn McBridehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09503331313775640577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-82664869463877652052012-06-13T12:05:33.380-07:002012-06-13T12:05:33.380-07:00Interesting.

It looks very warm a loft in San Diego, and much cooler up north, but still the inversion. NEVERTHELESS, after today, I don't see any rain in the forecast for the Seattle area-- There a variable amounts of clouds and a good bit of sunshine in the 10-day forecast. Althought weather.com says change of showers on the weekend. High Temps around 20C +/-. Looks like the onset of summer. <br />\Wardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02414198550493495245noreply@blogger.com
