2022-2023 California and Southwest Weather Thread

[Anti Marine Layer]

San Diego reached 70 today and yesterday. Some years it has taken later into June to see their first 70.

[Anti Marine Layer]

Mega-gloomy this morning. 

[Anti Marine Layer]

Long time no Reg

[Thunder98]

The GFS has yet another low hitting the Central Coast on the 18th-19th! I think this will be the theme of this summer.

@Anti Marine Layer As long as these lows keep giving me thunderstorms and rain, i will not complain.

Need some hot weather already. Only 12 days until the days start to get shorter.

[Thunder98]

Small warmer than avg sst blob along the central coast coast.

 

[Anti Marine Layer]

We could see some more record low maximum temperatures this weekend. 

[Anti Marine Layer]

Possible warmup by the end of next week, but the way this year has been so far, I'm not so sure.

[Anti Marine Layer]

Looking a lot like 2009.

[Anti Marine Layer]

Quite quiet. 

[Reg]

Much cloudier today. Amazingly mild past few weeks, most recent years we saw record heat going into June.

Walking fast in the marine layer makes me sweaty.

Got nothing from this low. Lame

[Anti Marine Layer]

A few disruptions to the clouds this morning, but I assume it will fill back in rather quickly.

Sun never showed here inland today, it stayed completely cloudy all day and quite dark. Drizzled a few times but was not measurable. Days like today I mark "Trace" for precipitation in my records.

I expect Marine Layer to be happy about the increased activity here during this weather.
