Pn1ct0g3n Posted August 30, 2021 Report Share Posted August 30, 2021 The cloud gods gave us a pleasant morning here. It’s a bit counterintuitive but beach clearing is easier with a medium marine layer than a really shallow one (which classically leads to heatwave fog hugging the coast).

Pn1ct0g3n Posted August 30, 2021 Report Share Posted August 30, 2021 And more troughing, which means more cooling, which means more NWly winds, which means cooler water, which means more clouds, which means yet more cooling. 72 for a high today when historically we should expect 77.

AquariusRadar Posted August 31, 2021 Report Share Posted August 31, 2021 The Joshua Trees get a little sprinkle. Hurray. Not to be political but I agree with the candidates' goofy aqueduct idea in this article. not so goofy idea https://news.yahoo.com/column-building-pipeline-mississippi-idea-120038483.html?fr=sycsrp_catchall. If we can spend trillions and trillions on military hardware-that we frequently abandon in far flung places-we can build aqueducts that make our state self sustaining. As a state and country, we need to put our big boy pants on, get the shovels out, and start digging. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pn1ct0g3n Posted August 31, 2021 Report Share Posted August 31, 2021 Instability helped mix things out here, but for areas outside the monsoon plume, the marine layer is holding fast. Cool even inland — low 70s in Temecula. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunder98 Posted September 1, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2021 Meteorological Summer was very average and super boring this year for the Santa Maria area. Only 1 day above 90F and 6 days above 80F. Really pathetic. Last Summer, there were 3 days above 90F and 15 days above 80F. 2021: 2020: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially deep marine layers created by an eddy pulling up warmer water. But if the eddy is too strong everything will be socked in. Funny how that works.

Pn1ct0g3n Posted September 2, 2021 Report Share Posted September 2, 2021 Echoing Thunder98 for how it felt here in the South Bay: 2021 was an odd beast of a meteorological summer. Very mild, near to a bit below average with no major heatwaves. Very 2008-like. There were even some periods of near record coolness across America’s southern tier while heatwaves raged up north. The monsoon was very active but unlike the other big monsoon years of the 2010s, it remained cool with dews rarely exceeding 65 and almost no instability reached the coast. Probably because the ocean was cooler than those years, so onshore flow was nearly continuous and convection almost impossible. Whenever the ocean tried to warm up, a northwest wind event soon knocked it back down. It’s not over yet! September is the start of meteorological fall, but it’s really a late summer month most years here. Let’s get a tropical remnant up here to send it off.
