The average cloud cover of the Earth, 2005-2013. Colors range from blue (no clouds) to white (totally cloudy). [6] (click for more detail) Cloud cover values only vary by 3% from year-to-year averages, whereas the local, day-to-day variability in cloud amounts typically rises to 30% over the globe.
Typical meteorological year (TMY) is a collation of selected weather data for a specific location, listing hourly values of solar radiation and meteorological elements for a one-year period. The values are generated from a data bank much longer than a year in duration, at least 12 years.
The initial version of Global Historical Climatology Network was developed in the summer of 1992. [3] This first version, known as Version 1 was a collaboration between research stations and data sets alike to the World Weather Records program and the World Monthly Surface Station Climatology from the National Center for Atmospheric Research.

The months of January and February have somewhat less frequent storms. On average, Tutunendo has 280 days with rainfall per year. Over ⅔ of the rain (68%) falls during the night. The average relative humidity is 90% and the average temperature is 26.4 °C. [63]
UAH provide data on three broad levels of the atmosphere. The Lower troposphere - TLT (originally called T2LT). The mid troposphere - TMT; The lower stratosphere - TLS [3] Data are provided as temperature anomalies against the seasonal average over a past basis period, as well as in absolute temperature values. The baseline period for the ...
Climatological normal or climate normal (CN) is a 30-year average of a weather variable for a given time of year. [1] Most commonly, a CN refers to a particular month of year , but it may also refer to a broader scale, such as a specific meteorological season . [ 2 ]
A climograph is a graphical representation of a location's basic climate. Climographs display data for two variables: monthly average temperature; monthly average precipitation. [1] These are useful tools to quickly describe a location's climate.
A Climate Data Record (CDR) is a specific definition of a climate data series, developed by the Committee on Climate Data Records from NOAA Operational Satellites of the National Research Council at the request of NOAA in the context of satellite records. [1]
