Definitive Guide to Skew-Ts and Hodographs - Part 2 - Constructing a Skew-T from Raw Data

Ғылым және технология

Welcome to my Definitive Guide to Skew-Ts and Hodographs! In this multi-part series, we'll take a deep dive into deciphering those complicated skew-T log-P diagrams and hodographs, which are both critical tools in severe weather forecasting.
In this video (Part 2), we discuss how a skew-T is constructed from raw data.
Contents:
0:00 Introduction
1:48 Raw, encoded data
3:11 Tabular data
11:06 Constructing a skew-T

    So - I just added up the time of each of your videos in this & the upper air analysis playlists & as of this writing, between them there are ~9 hrs of quality educational content. That’s not even to mention the practical applications of these in your case studies. Basically a university level deep dive on this channel. Amazing!

    This is so well put together and explained, it makes total sense how it formulates conditions! While it's now understandable, it is A LOT of data to absorb at once and your instantaneous comprehension at a glance is envied by us. Very much appreciate your time!

    Fantastic series! Between this series and Tim Vasquez's "Instability, Skew-T, and the Hodograph" book, this aspect of weather is DEFINITELY a ton clearer. Thank you, again, for taking the time to put this together!! Subscribed! Take care...

    I have a tempest weather station (that I love) but it has a few things that I can’t figure out what they mean. First is Delta-T temperature. From what I could gather I was thinking it is basically the lapse rate. Is that really what it means? One thing that seems off about the Tempest (let me know to anyone who has one) is the wind speed. I live right on the north east coast of Massachusetts on Cape Ann so we get nor Easter’s all the time with lots of wind. The thing is the highest gust it has recorded in the 3 years I’ve had it is 43.4 mph on 2/3/23. There is no way that’s been the highest gust. The blizzard/ bomb cyclone we got January 29, 2022 I could only get within about 30 yards from the ocean because the wind was literally pushing me backwards uphill. That wind had to be at least 60 to 70 mph or more. Anyone else have this problem with the Tempest weather station? Sorry for such a long comment.

    I'll be honest, I'm not very familiar with Tempest weather stations. Delta-T I'd guess is a change in temperature over a certain period of time. In order for it to be a lapse rate, it would need to be taking temperature readings at two different heights, which is, of course, impossible. As far as the wind, I'm unsure what the issue would be. Perhaps it could be a function of where you have it mounted that might artificially decrease wind speeds a bit.

    Hmm, I’m not sure exactly what you’re referring to…do you have a time code? Always remember that the temperature lines are skewed, so it may look like it’s a different value than it actually is when plotted.
