Pers sunshine recorder A sunshine recorder of the type in which the time scale is supplied by the motion of the sun.
Percent Possible Sunshine Percent possible sunshine is a standard climate measurement made at National Weather Service Offices, but it is often misunderstood as a indicator of solar energy.
Climatic elements include precipitation, temperature, humidity, sunshine and wind velocity and phenomena such as fog, frost, and hail storms.
Solar heating; sunshine.Instability(abbrev. INSTBY)- The tendency for air parcels to accelerate when they are displaced from their original position; especially, the tendency to accelerate upward after being lifted.
INSTRUMENT SHELTER A boxlike structure designed to protect temperature measuring instruments from exposure to direct sunshine, precipitation, and condensation, while at the same time time providing adequate ventilation.
Equipment or services supplied: An extensive range of Classical Meteorological Instrumentation for monitoring temperature, sunshine, airflow, humidity, pressure and rainfall.
Causes extreme variability in weather conditions around Seattle, Washington with some areas of sunshine and others in clouds and rain.
Sunny: Sunshine 70-100 percent of the day.
Partly sunny and partly cloudy: Both terms refer to 40 to 70 percent cloud cover. Partly sunny is used in the day; partly cloudy is used at night.
Fog: A cloud on the ground.

Exposure to full sunshine can increase Heat Index (HI) values by up to 15oF. Also strong winds, particularly with very hot, dry air, can be extremely dangerous. Any value Heat Index (HI) greater than 105oF is in the Danger Category.
sunlight"Light from the sun; also called sunshine. The majority of the energy from the sun is divided into three parts: ultraviolet radiation, wavelengths less than about 0.4 μm; visible radiation, wavelengths between about 0.4 and 0.
Solar heating; sunshine.
Instability (Unstable Air) A state of atmosphere in which the vertical distribution of temperature allows rising, warm air to continue to rise and accelerate. This kind of motion is conducive for thunderstorm development.
Insolation - incoming solar radiation; sunshine
Instability - the tendency for an object, if moved, to accelerate in the direction of initial movement; in particular for meteorologists, ...
ISOHEL A line drawn through geographic points having equal duration of sunshine or another form of solar radiation during a specified time period.
Insolation- Incoming solar radiation. Solar heating; sunshine.
Instability- A state of the atmosphere in which convection takes place spontaneously, leading to cloud formation and precipitation.
Partly Sunny - Similar to partly cloudy. Used to emphasize daytime sunshine.
Patches - Used with fog to denote random occurrence over relatively small areas.
For example, the pictogram 'partly cloudy' doesn't say whether the clouds are thickening or clearing, but it tells you that there will be sunshine at some point of the day.
