Wondering what the weather might be like on the Springfield campus? The new weather station on top of Sangamon Hall can provide the info you’re looking for! From a camera view looking north over Lake Macoupin to the current temperature, humidity, pressure, wind speed, precipitation and more. Hourly observations, daily observations and stations graphs are also available — great data that you can follow for your own interest or use in your courses. A weather monitor is found in the display case on second floor of Sangamon Hall (by the greenhouse). You can also access the information now available from LLCC’s online weather center.

One piece of weather data found on the weather station is the Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT). Please select the link to learn about the WBGT. What is the Wet Bulb Globe Temperature?
