A very simple model of atmospheric transmittance uses as its input regularly observed and archived measures of upper air humidity. The five model parameters were determined empirically to optimize the agreement with radiation measured at six sites in the northwestern contiguous USA in summer and winter 1990. The model uses the relative humidity at 500 hPa, the relative humidity at either 950 hPa or 800 hPa depending on the altitude of the station and the precipitable water.
