NWS_LA is forecasting 69° for Pasadena on Sat/ Sun. Cool but certainly not unheard of in May. With deeper troughing later next week, we could score several days in the 60's and lots of stratus.

There is a dearth of information regarding ocean currents off SoCal.  Anyone have a source that explains counter-currents/ Davidson current?

Strange pattern for sure. 7000 ft deep marine layer over Southern California, strong offshore flow last night over San Francisco Bay Area, and low clouds which got into Paso Robles from the southwest this morning instead of the usual passage from the Monterey Bay, and a ridge building over PNW for some record heat.

 

Climate change, yes. Global warming, not so sure about that.

Nearby but cooler than my location: 60F.  San Rafael Hills is just under 2000' in the deep coastal clouds.   :)

Inland locations are the coldest in deep marine layer events, especially when the eddy is supplying the marine layer with PEDs. Eddy winds are not quite as strong today, but temperatures are not any warmer.

 

Last few years it seems May Gray has been more prominent than June Gloom.

Some surprising rain amounts of around 0.15 in coastal foothills around UCLA/ Santa Monica/ Rancho Palos Verdes and near a half an inch in parts of San Gabriel mountains today.
