Just curious,
What formula is used for the cloud base calculations?
I’m guessing it is just ( ( Temperature F - Dew point F ) / 4.4 ) * 1000 FT ) = cloud base in feet / 3.28 = meters
I’m just wondering because I would like to list the cloud base as either CL/LCL/CCL and want to know which is most accurate. If the above formula is used then LCL is the correct term.

Tom
