[ncl-talk] A couple of questions...

Happy New Year!

The difference between T and Td is proportional to the RH.
At the same time (5pm) there is a sudden increase in the wind speed,  
bringing new air to the area.
The air mass that came to the area was warmer and less humid, meaning  
that while the temperature had higher values, the difference between  
Td and T had to be bigger too.
