      Super easy to calculate if you wish to go simple.
      Thermal Base = 1,000 ft per 4.4F° difference in surfacetemp - dewpoint
      (there are more complex formulas but this is good enough, this usually also forecasts the cumulus layer cloud base).

      Thank you for a most awesome site! - Michael Price
