Weather Report for: Sunday the 27th

Taken at 3:00pm: Incredibly strange, a grey day with near 100% cloud cover! The sky just looked like a grey, monotonous plate. The clouds look like alto-stratus clouds in that they are not quite as dark as nimbostratus clouds but still form a grey sheet.


Temperature: 27 c
Air Pressure: 1012 
Humidity: 61%
Precipitation: 0mm

Weather Report for: Thursday the 24th

(I tried uploading this on Thursday but apparently it didn't work, so I'm uploading it today)


Taken at 3:00pm, Today was hot and humid, with sun and stratus clouds stretching lazily across the blue sky. A few characteristically wispy cirrus and puffy cumulus clouds dotted the edges of my view, and it looks like a nice day.


Temperature: 29.1 c
Humidity: 67%
Precipitation: 0mm
