   These reading seem to back the message from the TIC. Earth's atmosphere   
   (sky) is losing heat energy into space. The ground follows and radiates heat   
   energy into the sky. Air convects sideways from across the Pacific and air   
   temperature is another independent variable. In fact air is subject to   
   adiabatic warming when it slides down from Mt. Benson.   
      
   The ground readings are probably a measure of night time cooling and the   
   thermal inertia of the tarmac.   
      
   The sky reading may be more universal at this latitude. It may be globally   
   predictive.   
      
   Probably the best cold readings are obtained just before dawn when the Sun   
   heats the sky.
