Cloud cover here is the low and middle layers together, the cloud that hides the sun. High cloud is what a sunrise lights up, so it is counted on its own. Open-Meteo archive (ERA5 and IFS analysis), 6:00 AM.

In My Ears

What I Was Listening To

  • Terra and Imperium (The Duchy of Terra, book 3) by Glynn Stewart. About 54% to 69% of the way through.

From Audible's listening time for the day, which does not say which book: the book comes from the order I heard them in, and how far through it is an estimate. How it is worked out.
