Well, it is not a marine layer. It is the aftermath of a cold front that passed through.

[Anti Marine Layer]

Rained some more overnight.

[Anti Marine Layer]

Plenty of high clouds to compete with the low clouds.

[Anti Marine Layer]

Sunrise is at 6:55 AM now and will be there each day until January 15, except for January 8, when it will be at 6:56 AM.

[Anti Marine Layer]

Got a total of 0.50" yesterday and 0.09" last night.

[Anti Marine Layer]

Less than 13 hours to go.

[Anti Marine Layer]

Lots of people will get high tonight, but 33.30 degrees is as high as the sun angle got today.

[Anti Marine Layer]

High clouds and low clouds continue to battle it out in the gloomy day competition. 

[Anti Marine Layer]

Went for my last dog walk of 2023. Lots of thick high clouds. 

[Anti Marine Layer]

No more daylight until next year.

[Anti Marine Layer]

Gonna get the percentage up some more, as it still will not be close to my post percentage in the 2024-25 California thread of dead.

[Anti Marine Layer]

May or may not rain on the Rose Parade. Will find out next year.

[Anti Marine Layer]

2023 was a wet year that ended on a dry note.

[Anti Marine Layer]

Anyone doing anything exciting for New Year's Eve?
