Temperature Inversion Tool (Celsius)
Why does the air sometimes feel colder the higher you go? It’s called a temperature inversion, and it’s a fascinating weather phenomenon that can affect everything from your morning jog to air quality. This tool helps you visualize and understand temperature inversions in a snap. Just enter the ground-level and upper-level temperatures, and let the tool do the rest. Whether you're a weather enthusiast, a student, or just curious, this tool makes exploring temperature inversions simple, fun, and insightful. Say goodbye to confusion and hello to clarity!
Enter ground-level and upper-level temperatures to visualize temperature inversion.
The tool compares two temperatures: the ground-level temperature and the upper-level temperature. Normally, the air gets colder as you go higher. But in a temperature inversion, the opposite happens—the air gets warmer as you go up. Here’s how the tool calculates it:
- If the upper-level temperature is higher than the ground-level temperature, the tool detects a temperature inversion.
- It then calculates the difference between the two temperatures to show how strong the inversion is.
- The results are displayed in an easy-to-read chart, so you can see the inversion at a glance.
| Ground-Level Temp (°C) | Upper-Level Temp (°C) | Result |
|---|---|---|
| 10 | 15 | Inversion (5°C difference) |
| 20 | 18 | No inversion |
| 5 | 10 | Inversion (5°C difference) |
| -2 | 3 | Inversion (5°C difference) |
| 25 | 25 | No inversion |
