The figure below presents a compact representation of key lunar data for 2024. The horizontal axis is the day, the vertical axis is the hour of the day, and the colored areas indicate when the moon is above the horizon. The vertical gray bars (new Moons) and blue bars (full Moons) indicate key Moon phases.

We base the humidity comfort level on the dew point, as it determines whether perspiration will evaporate from the skin, thereby cooling the body. Lower dew points feel drier and higher dew points feel more humid. Unlike temperature, which typically varies significantly between night and day, dew point tends to change more slowly, so while the temperature may drop at night, a muggy day is typically followed by a muggy night.

Embarcación experiences extreme seasonal variation in the perceived humidity.

The muggier period of the year lasts for 7.1 months, from October 14 to May 19, during which time the comfort level is muggy, oppressive, or miserable at least 25% of the time. The month with the most muggy days in Embarcación is January, with 28.0 days that are muggy or worse.

The month with the fewest muggy days in Embarcación is August, with 0.9 days that are muggy or worse.

This section discusses the wide-area hourly average wind vector (speed and direction) at 10 meters above the ground. The wind experienced at any given location is highly dependent on local topography and other factors, and instantaneous wind speed and direction vary more widely than hourly averages.

The average hourly wind speed in Embarcación experiences mild seasonal variation over the course of the year.

The windier part of the year lasts for 4.0 months, from August 21 to December 23, with average wind speeds of more than 5.9 miles per hour. The windiest month of the year in Embarcación is October, with an average hourly wind speed of 6.8 miles per hour.

The calmer time of year lasts for 8.0 months, from December 23 to August 21. The calmest month of the year in Embarcación is June, with an average hourly wind speed of 4.9 miles per hour.

The predominant average hourly wind direction in Embarcación is from the east throughout the year.

To characterize how pleasant the weather is in Embarcación throughout the year, we compute two travel scores.

The tourism score favors clear, rainless days with perceived temperatures between 65°F and 80°F. Based on this score, the best times of year to visit Embarcación for general outdoor tourist activities are from early April to early June and from late August to early October, with a peak score in the first week of May.

The beach/pool score favors clear, rainless days with perceived temperatures between 75°F and 90°F. Based on this score, the best times of year to visit Embarcación for hot-weather activities are from mid February to mid April and from late September to early January, with a peak score in the third week of November.

Methodology

For each hour between 8:00 AM and 9:00 PM of each day in the analysis period (1980 to 2016), independent scores are computed for perceived temperature, cloud cover, and total precipitation. Those scores are combined into a single hourly composite score, which is then aggregated into days, averaged over all the years in the analysis period, and smoothed.

Our cloud cover score is 10 for fully clear skies, falling linearly to 9 for mostly clear skies, and to 1 for fully overcast skies.

Our precipitation score, which is based on the three-hour precipitation centered on the hour in question, is 10 for no precipitation, falling linearly to 9 for trace precipitation, and to 0 for 0.04 inches of precipitation or more.

Our tourism temperature score is 0 for perceived temperatures below 50°F, rising linearly to 9 for 65°F, to 10 for 75°F, falling linearly to 9 for 80°F, and to 1 for 90°F or hotter.

Our beach/pool temperature score is 0 for perceived temperatures below 65°F, rising linearly to 9 for 75°F, to 10 for 82°F, falling linearly to 9 for 90°F, and to 1 for 100°F or hotter.

Definitions of the growing season vary throughout the world, but for the purposes of this report, we define it as the longest continuous period of non-freezing temperatures (≥ 32°F) in the year (the calendar year in the Northern Hemisphere, or from July 1 until June 30 in the Southern Hemisphere).

Temperatures in Embarcación are sufficiently warm year round that it is not entirely meaningful to discuss the growing season in these terms. We nevertheless include the chart below as an illustration of the distribution of temperatures experienced throughout the year.

Growing degree days are a measure of yearly heat accumulation used to predict plant and animal development, and defined as the integral of warmth above a base temperature, discarding any excess above a maximum temperature. In this report, we use a base of 50°F and a cap of 86°F.

This section discusses the total daily incident shortwave solar energy reaching the surface of the ground over a wide area, taking full account of seasonal variations in the length of the day, the elevation of the Sun above the horizon, and absorption by clouds and other atmospheric constituents. Shortwave radiation includes visible light and ultraviolet radiation.

The average daily incident shortwave solar energy experiences significant seasonal variation over the course of the year.

The brighter period of the year lasts for 3.5 months, from October 21 to February 7, with an average daily incident shortwave energy per square meter above 6.9 kWh. The brightest month of the year in Embarcación is December, with an average of 7.5 kWh.

The darker period of the year lasts for 2.9 months, from May 3 to August 1, with an average daily incident shortwave energy per square meter below 4.9 kWh. The darkest month of the year in Embarcación is June, with an average of 4.3 kWh.
