Cloudbase graph

Post by Armond »

Hi!
Is there any way to get a cloudbase graph?
I have searched, but not really find out how to do it.
Is there any step by step instruction?

Or what is your best solution for that?

Hi,
Brian, BCJKiwi, has adapted the cloudbase.php script to work with Cumulus https://silveracorn.nz/weather/wxscripts.php
and it is also part of his MXUIwebsite template http://www.komokaweather.com/cumulusmxw ... seCUmx.php

Enjoy,
Paul

The wiki gives the equation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_base

Code: Select all

cloud base = (temperature - dew point) / 4.4 * 1000 + elevation
which is what CMX uses.

You could create the chart with the (standalone) ChartsCompiler of CUtils but that might be a bit using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.
