Guest happ Posted August 17, 2018 Report Share Posted August 17, 2018 Almost identical to yesterday morning except scattered stratus formed a bit further inland.

Guest happ Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 June Gloom in August with East Coast humidity levels. The mets on the Weather Channel were discussing the uncomfortable dew point temps over the eastern half of the nation this morning. The same levels of humidity [DW: upper 60's/ mid 70's] have also been occurring in SoCal but without rain except in isolated mountain areas. They may be tired of the near endless storms and muggy air back East this summer but I'd gladly trade places. To have such high/ prolonged humidity without the benefit of showers makes it more miserable in California. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest happ Posted August 22, 2018 Report Share Posted August 22, 2018 Some discussion on WeatherWest of stormchasers going to Hawaii. Once I was in Orlando for business purposes during a category 1 hurricane that was losing power; gusty wind/ heavy rainfall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anti Marine Layer Posted August 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 Sea surface temperatures are still well above average, but longwave troughing and northwest flow could knock them down next week. Imagine if we would have a cool day with highs below 80 and lows in the low to mid 60s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest happ Posted August 23, 2018 Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 Even though maximums are below 90F [more or less] the dewpoints make it feel uncomfortable w/ hext indexes. 89/ 70 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan the Weatherman Posted August 24, 2018 Report Share Posted August 24, 2018 This has been a very boring summer in Socal, as there has really been a pronounced lack of monsoonal activity despite the high heat we have been experiencing. There hasn't even been that many days in which midlevel moisture has been overhead west of the mountains. It does feel good that we are cooling down somewhat, but it would be nice to see one last gasp of the monsoon before the summer pattern transitions to fall with possibly even remnants from a tropical system. It seems that the Epac hurricanes aren't tracking along the Mexican coast this year, and are mostly moving westward in the direction of Hawaii. I will even say that this entire year has been boring from a weather standpoint. I don't know if it can get any duller than this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anti Marine Layer Posted August 24, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2018 We're pretty much into a blah early fall pattern except that sea surface temperatures are still above normal, but it looks like they are not quite as warm anymore as earlier this month.

The painful reality is that we don't get very interesting summers anyway. In-fact, our climate is boring year-round if you like rain/ snow. One thing we have been spared for the most part is that the smoke over NorCal/ PacificNW has not impacted us in SoCal. Aside from some distant thunderstorms [san Bernardino mts] the only rain occurred July 18th when some rapidly-weakening cells reached Los Angeles.

Anti Marine Layer Posted August 26, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2018 Deep marine layer once again in place this morning. Days have been more comfortable recently, but it looks like monsoon season could be done, with even Flagstaff not expecting any monsoon activity after today.
