[QUOTE="guywhofishes, post: 126167, member: 337"] Dear Mr. Slanding, Precise definitions of those terms do not exist and their use is somewhat arbitrary, even among weather forecasters. Technically, partly sunny means more clouds than sun and partly cloudy means more sun than clouds, but for all intents and purposes the terms are interchangeable (except that partly sunny is strictly a daytime term). Sky coverage terms are based upon the amount of sky covered by opaque clouds. Very thin clouds that do not block the sun are ignored. On the NDA page we adhere to the following definitions: clear, sunny: no clouds or less than 0.1 sky coverage; mostly sunny: 0.1 to 0.2 sky coverage; partly cloudy, partly sunny: 0.3 to 0.7 coverage; mostly cloudy: 0.8 to 0.9 coverage; cloudy, overcast: near 100 percent coverage. Cheers, Nean (yes - it's really me speaking through my minion - guywhominions) [/QUOTE]
