Field notes
The Weather Lab describes a sequence from ground dew point and mixing ratio to cloud base, then cloud top, with separate thermal readings for take-off and the afternoon peak. Its on-page guide explains how moisture and inversions can produce spread-out cumulus, towers, or blue thermals. Flight controls include keyboard shortcuts, touch-control help, haptics, and a speed-to-fly setting.
