Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

Haha when you mentioned it, I thought maybe dewpoint was easier to calculate. It's not.

Edit: Oh, but there's this: simple approximation. That could work!

Yeah, I used the simple version originally. I switched to the harder one because it's available via the R package.

But I'm pretty sure there's very little difference in practice.

Yeah, it says +/- 1C for humidity about 50%. I've got it going, so I'll run it for a while and see if this gives me more stable data.
