Forecasts in a nutshell

Note: click on a figure to magnify the image.
Date of figures refers to the start of night in MST.
See color legend.

Seeing *	Isoplanatic Angle	Wavefront Coherence Time
Fig. 1: Temporal evolution of εTOT ([dome-20km]) between the sunset and the sunrise.	Fig. 2: Temporal evolution of θ0,TOT ([dome-20km]) between the sunset and the sunrise.	Fig. 3: Temporal evolution of τ0,TOT ([dome-20km]) between the sunset and the sunrise.
Temperature at ground *	Wind Speed at ground *	Wind Direction at ground *
Fig. 4: Absolute temperature temporal evolution between the sunset and the sunrise at [38-62]m.	Fig. 5: Wind speed temporal evolution between the sunset and the sunrise at [38-62]m.	Fig. 6: Wind direction temporal evolution between the sunset and the sunrise at [38-62]m.

Relative Humidity at ground *	Wind Speed vertical profiles	Precipitable Water Vapor
Fig. 8: Relative humidity temporal evolution between the sunset and the sunrise at [38-62]m.	Fig. 8: Averaged wind speed in the three successive periods of the night (see red, blue and green intervals).	Fig. 9: Precipitable water vapor temporal evolution between the sunset and the sunrise.

*: When real time measurements are available (green line) the forecast at short time scale (red or magenta line) is available too, provided it exists at least one more night in the last five nights with observations (condition to apply the AR method). See legend for more details. We remember that the DIMM is located inside the LBT dome. That means that, if the LBT dome is closed for whatever reason including bad weather, we have no real-time seeing measurements and, as a consequence, we have no forecast at short time scale of the seeing.
