Some low clouds again this morning.

 

Haven't heard from Richard mann in a while.

[Black Hole]

I've been in Torrence for a few days. Morning clouds and afternoon sun with highs near 80F. Not bad.

[Guest happ]

Next week could produce triple-digit readings again for areas fairly close to the coastline [like my location]. Yikes

Ocean temps in the 70's - ideal surf conditions in Laguna Beach

 

[Guest happ]

Though dew point temps are in the 60's that is lower, overall than yesterday. Stratus lurks offshore but close enough to provide some cooling even inland a bit. May not break 90F here today.

 

86.1°

[Guest happ]

Cooler and a bit drier air this morning

Modest cumulus development that is already diminishing

This would be nice. Too bad it is Geneva Switzerland  https://twitter.com/StormchaserUKEU

 

[Guest happ]

Not looking forward to next week

Stratus to the north and to the south. Maybe the pool of 22-24C in bight has something to do with it. 

 

 

[Guest happ]

Not a good look

Quite simply hot and more to come

Similar temperatures and dewpoints for San Diego and Hilo. Believe it or not, there is a marine layer in San Diego.

It's hot, but not quite as hot as the forecast

[Guest happ]

Agree, hot but a little less heat than what was forecast

 

100/ 72

[Anti Marine Layer]

Warm, muggy evening.

[Guest happ]

Last night was just plain miserable.  Discussion on a local website about how it seems each summer gets more humid. Dew point temps above 70° are almost routine it seems.

June Gloom conditions at the beaches, but warm and muggy. Anyway, looks like the 100 F will be out of reach for KFUL today.

 

4 huge bangs last night around 4:45 AM that sounded like fireworks or gunshots and woke me up and got my dog barking. No clue what they were. If it was idiots doing fireworks, however, they should be made to suffer in the heat all day.

[Guest happ]

Stratus all the way down to central Baja

Yesterday Vandenberg launched a rocket at around 4:40AM yesterday. It woked me up and I thought it was an earthquake because the house was shaking,

[Anti Marine Layer]

Warm and overcast this morning. That does not happen very much here.

[Guest happ]

Fires all over the West; it seems a routine character of what constitutes summer.  Though mostly downwind from LA the smoke from the 'Cranston' fire [san Jacinto mts] has managed to creep westward making already foul air even worse.  Add uncomfortably high dew points and heat and staying indoors is nearly mandatory.  Horrible month.

Insult to injury is that the fire was intentionally set  https://www.desertsun.com/story/news/crime_courts/2018/07/26/brandon-mcglover-temecula-cranston-fire/842887002/

[Guest happ]

As of today 20 maximums 90°+ this month

Combination of scattered high clouds/ smoke/ hazy stratus this morning.

I have family in the Coachella valley and will be out there in early August. Yikes 

[Anti Marine Layer]

Not so much the temperatures as the humidity that is unbearable. It's actually low 80s with a pretty strong breeze. With normal sea surface temperatures we would probably be below 80.

[Guest happ]

Air quality is much better this morning, thanks, in part, to improved containment of 'Cranston' fire.  Bit of an easterly wave so dew points will remain quite uncomfortable. 

 

Saturday: 90/ 69 

[Guest happ]

Even Central valley has mugginess. Dew points pushing 60F in northern Sacramento valley [as in Portland, btw]. Has to help firefighters

Toasty again, but dewpoint has dropped in Fullerton. However, I am a bit suspicious of that, as it does not feel any less humid.
