Bill, what you want to do is something like this:

It requires some conversion. This is what you need:

Code:

Which gives you this:



UBB seems to throw a fit if it's not all on the same line, too...

If you could look at my full chart you would see red in the humidity its so humid water drips off the scope right now. I took the wifes hair dryer out night before last and it helped for a little while but I gave up around 3 am.

If you want to jump quickly to your full Clear Sky Clock (or the CSC of any one else who has it in their signature) just click on it... it's a live link.

Also, in case anyone reading this wasn't aware, if you click on any single block in the CSC from the main site, it puts up a map so you can see the general cloud pattern of surrounding states. Sometimes helps judge when you might expect clearer skies.

Nearly always.

I was out with the family this evening, waiting outside a restaurant, and I was amazed to find it rather pleasant out there. I didn't even break a sweat standing there.

Ft Polk and I cant remember but just a few times during my stay there that it wasnt humid,Well maybe some of the winter.There were days in the summer also but it was still humid.Our summers here are most of the time.
