    Inversion

    December 25, 2018 in Germany ⋅ -1 °C

    i love ❤️ inversion in the mountains... you're sitting around in the valley, weather is cloudy, sometimes rainy - all in all some kind of depressive feeling. if it's inversion weather you simply jump on your bike, scooter or car and drive up the mountains over the boundary layer. there you have clear air, sunshine and a wonderful view on top of the clouds. because the inversion forms clouds at low level beneath clear skies.
    so what is an inversion? in meteorology, an inversion is a deviation from the normal change of an atmospheric property with altitude. it almost always refers to an inversion of the air temperature lapse rate, in which case it is called a temperature inversion. normally, air temperature decreases with an increase in altitude, but during an inversion warmer air is held above cooler air.
    so the clouds stay in the valley 😁.
