Dewpoint temperature (degrees Fahrenheit).

Air temperature (in degrees Fahrenheit).

They include reports of a variety of weather data at that location: Station plots describe the weather at a station location. (When reading the chart, note whether the time of year is daylight saving time or standard time and read accordingly.)Īs seen here, some surface weather maps include groupings of numbers and symbols known as weather station plots.

If you're in California (which is Pacific Coastal Time) and the UTC issue time is "1345Z" (or 1:45 p.m.), then you know that the map was constructed at 5:45 a.m. If you're new to Z time, using a conversion chart (like the one shown above) will help you easily convert between it and your local time. Known as Zulu or Z time, this figure is included on a weather map so that all meteorological weather observations (taken at different locations and therefore, in different time zones) can be reported at the same standardized times no matter what the local time might be. It tells you when the weather map was created and also the time when the weather data in the map is valid. For example, as of writing, you can track current hurricanes and tropical storms.One of the first coded pieces of data you might notice on a weather map is a 4-digit number followed by the letters "Z" or "UTC." Usually found at the map's top or bottom corner, this string of numbers and letters is a timestamp. Though, you can switch on other layers related to the climatological shifts on Earth. We couldn't spot the layers in Google Earth for Web's Voyager feature. Real-time data for temperature, wind speed, and precipitation data was supplied by The Weather Company (an IBM subsidiary). Till 2018, you could also switch on the weather layers on Google Earth Web, Android, and iOS. Unfortunately, this is due to changes in the third-party data feeds that we're unable to fix. You may have noticed that the "Conditions and Forecast" and "Ocean Observations" in the Weather layer folder haven't received updates in awhile. The Google Earth Weather "Radar" layer was also removed for the same reason. Why Live Weather Forecasts on Google Earth Disappeared?Įarlier, you could keep an eye on the current weather while using Google Earth like a live radar but that feature had been dropped in 2017 because of sketchiness with the third-party weather feeds.
