[Anti Marine Layer]

Wow, looks like some of San Diego County has cleared to the beaches already.

[Anti Marine Layer]

Eddy might be slowly warming up the ocean.

[Anti Marine Layer]

The gunk is blowing in, a bit more slowly today, in classic eddy fashion. 

[Anti Marine Layer]

Something more interesting than the daily ebb and flow of the gunk from the Pacific.

BREAKING NEWS: Satellite is in shards again

Nice boomers far away from the gunk.

Got mostly sunny today but never cleared out 100%. Then it blew back in around 5 pm.

Ditto

[Anti Marine Layer]

Earlier today

[Reg]

I’ll be flying back home today.

[Anti Marine Layer]

Forecast is a broken record.

Enjoy the May Gray.

[Anti Marine Layer]

It's the most crappy time of the year.

[Anti Marine Layer]

Looks like Downtown LA has never averaged below 71.10 for June, 75.68 for July or 77.18 for August, so there's still hope for some resemblance of a summer this year, even if the jacarandas don't bloom until the middle of July.

[Anti Marine Layer]

It's pretty much a guarantee now that Downtown LA will average below 70 for the high for May 2023. I'd be willing to bet $1,000,000 on that.

[Anti Marine Layer]

We need a VERY DEEP TROUGH with heights in the 510 dm range. At least that would wipe out the stupid inversion.

If Denver could get one, that would probably cause offshore flow here.

[Anti Marine Layer]

Still misting at 2 PM. Miserable Day Weekend coming up soon.

[Anti Marine Layer]

Wow!

[Anti Marine Layer]

@Reg will be landing in paradise.

[Thunder98]

Memorial Day weekend tends to be cloudy and miserable, while Labor Day weekend usually gets hot and humid

Wonder if the trees leaves will start changing color in June with this never-ending trough forecast.

This same cloudy pattern literally happened last October, but it was not a big deal to me since the days are much shorter and the sun angle was lowish

[Anti Marine Layer]

Julian could get fogged in soon.

[Anti Marine Layer]

What is this evil thing moving through?

[Reg]

Flew into the marine layer yesterday afternoon just before landing. San Gabriel Mountains were poking above and were still very much snow-capped. Encountered some drizzle around Yorba Linda coming home.

[Anti Marine Layer]

RAINING this morning. Get ready for the sweetgum trees to start losing leaves in late June or early July. Leaves will start changing colors by the 2nd week of June. That's my prediction.

Too bad you missed a delightful (by your preferences) 64 degree day in Temecula yesterday. 

[Thunder98]

The matine layer is super deep today

What a weird climate. Peak heating in May and then again during the turn to October.

And the marine layer is so reliable that native trees over thousands of years have learned to adapt.

[Anti Marine Layer]

59 in Temecula. I know you are LOVING it Reg. 

Actually its warmer here.

[Thunder98]

Nice and sunny here in Camarillo 

[Anti Marine Layer]

0.16" for Lake Forest Foothill Ranch, which is a little higher up and further inland than where I am.

[Thunder98]

Santa Maria had very little sun today, a step up from yesterday 

[Anti Marine Layer]

Julian fogged in now
