Clouds this December
Posted: 11 Dec 2014 05:43 AM
The featured chart is an attempt to show automated cloud reports from the Des Moines
Airport ASOS. These cloud reports include up to four levels of cloud coverage. Once the
automated sensor reaches a cloud deck that it considers to be overcast, no further
reports are possible above that layer. The past week has seen plenty of clouds with
ceilings below five thousand feet. You can now generate this plot on the website for other
sites the IEM collects data for and for previous months in the archive.
