About This Product
The Inversion Conditions map displays:
- Air temperature at 30 feet (9 m) in degrees Fahrenheit
- Air temperature at 5 feet (1.5 m) in degrees Fahrenheit
- Winds in miles per hour — The wind barb is an "arrow" that depicts the wind speed and direction. The "feathers" of the arrow indicate the wind speed while the dot end of the arrow indicate the direction the wind is blowing toward.
- Dewpoint temperature in degrees Fahrenheit
- Difference between the 30-foot and 5-foot air temperature in degrees Fahrenheit
Normally, air temperature decreases with height (no inversion). During inversion conditions, air temperature increases with height.
This map is updated every 5 minutes.
