Depending on the altitude of cloud base, three layers of clouds are distinguished: high, middle and low. A separate group includes clouds with vertical development.For more information, please see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud. - Why does the observational data available on the webpage "Weather archive" sometimes differ from the values observed by the user?
There are a few answers to the question:- the time when the user makes his observations may differ from the time of observations at the weather station as all main weather stations make observations at a fixed time;- the observation site chosen by the user may differ from the site and height of installation of meteorological instruments placed on specially designed instrument platforms. Measurement of air temperature is made in an instrument shelter at a height of 2 m above the ground;- the values of meteorological parameters at the time and site of observation can be influenced by the local terrain features, as well as significant obstacles (big houses, groups of trees) around the site of observation at a distance closer than 100 meters. - Can you issue an official report on weather status?
