I think you mixed up the seasons a bit there.

Winter year round this year, it looks like. Hopefully it warms up by July, but if not I'm looking forward to October and November when there should be at least some sunny days with a weaker inversion. Wouldn't be surprised to see the hottest day of the year in the Fall with our first Santa Ana wind event if we ever get one again.

First day of meteorological winter for the California coast. 

Even during the winter, you guys on the coast will still dip into the 40s, which definitely is not possible at this time of year.

It's possible the morning could be the brightest time of the day again as the sun builds up those stratocumulus clouds during the day.

It was so dark at 11 am yesterday it looked like a nuclear winter.

11 AM yesterday just looked like a standard winter day, or like any regular day in London...

So far JAN-MAY 2023 is the 23rd coldest on record for Downtown LA, with 1975 being the last colder year. Can we be even colder in 2024?

Coldest year so far in my lifetime, that's for sure.

Santa Maria's max temp this month was only 70F! Which is the lowest max temp during the month of may since records began since 1906! Though some years were missing. The avg high for May is around 69! Just a cool, miserable gloomy month. Though the rain at the beginning of the month was awesome!
