Overcast. Still little to no surface wind. Temperature
inversion just above the surface; smaller than during the 1400 launch. Large,
moist layer throughout most of the troposphere. Temperature follows a moist
adaiabat from 600mb to 200mb. Strong westerly winds throughout. Note: The
launch was initially a little shaky as the software was reporting negative
ascent rates to begin with. Aspen software, however, seemed to start recording
as soon as the ascent rates stabilized positively.

LCL around 600mb. Winds become westerly above the surface
and speeds pick up as the sonde travels upward. Again, very moist layer from
600mb to the tropopause.

Surface winds picked up and you could start to smell Greeley (meaning rain soon). Similar sounding to 2200UTC. LCL around 600mb. Large moist layer up until about 200mb. Wind speeds aloft were quite strong and westerly.
