Daily weather data report

Terminology

Evapotranspiration (ET)

Evapotranspiration is the combination of two separate processes whereby water is lost from the soil surface, through either evaporation or usage by plants (transpiration). Evaporation and transpiration occur simultaneously. They are measured here in inches of water per day.

ET is calculated by measuring the energy from various sources that impact plant growth. These energy sources are wind, air temperature and humidity.

Relative humidity

Relative humidity compares the actual amount of moisture in the air to the greatest possible amount that could be in the air (100 percent) at the same temperature and pressure.

Historical Weather Data

If a month is not linked, then no data is available for that period. Some months may have only partial data. Since Jan. 29, 2020, data was stopped being collected at Front Range Airport.
