BIG FROSTY Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 What's a good site for computing your wet bulb temps? I have two now and neither one of them seem to be working? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regan Raleigh Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 There was confusion. The poster wasn't adding the n and s. He said this one isn't configured in a way to hurt. Go back and look. More has been said since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strongwxnc Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Could or is? I just ask DT and FoothillsWx about it, both of them said yes it could rob some of the moisture..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strongwxnc Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Oh I agree. Was asking is they stated that is was happening now (which it is not) or could. This storm line is perpendicular. Not parallel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrasher Fan Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Why is that? I've been following this thread and storm for almost a week and DP has not come up until now. Will DP dictate future precipitation (type/amounts)? Honest question. Sorry just saw this question. In a CAD situation (Cold air damming), the 3 most important things to observe are your temperature, dew point and relative humidity. A math equation of all 3 of these are combined together to create your wet bulb temperature. More info on wetbulb can probably be found in the Weather Refrences and Newbie Info thread: http://www.americanwx.com/bb/index.php/topic/29651-weather-references-and-newbie-information/ Wetbulb calculator: http://www.srh.noaa.gov/epz/?n=wxcalc_dewpoint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

27596WXNUT Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 It's the oogie boogie man. Pack is killing me over there. Ha ha. It's comical. Thanks for the laugh Pack.

LithiaWx Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 OMG. Here come the hand-wringers worrying about storms robbing moisture. El Niño has given every system to date this year plenty of moisture to work with. I'd be concerned about WAA turning snow to sleet. The closer to that line the more I'd worry.

Shawn Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 00z NAM warmer. Thankfully the 32F line is staying well North of the Central Midlands for the main precipitation. My job is done here. Good luck everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
