Weather Banter

[Anti Marine Layer]

It's not just drizzling this morning. It's actually raining. Big noisy drops are hitting the roof.

Had some rain last night, it was sometimes hard enough to hear it on the roof.

Fullerton picked up an incredible 0.01" this morning. It looks like they got their weather station fixed recently as well.

 

[Anti Marine Layer]

There's a possibility that we finally get some warmer weather by next weekend, but that's still pretty far off and we have a cutoff low to deal with.

Big surprise. It's drizzling this morning. Nothing says spring here more than drizzle, despite the fact that the drizzly days can be colder than many sunny days during our winter season. Where else in the Northern Hemisphere do the high temperatures in May average 5 degrees cooler than October?

Graypril drizzle delays the May jacaranda bloom.

Last year we had a sopping wet Easter weekend with 1.63" in Fullerton. This year it's also lousy, but more like Memorial Day weekend, which many years ends up being colder than Thanksgiving here. We've even had years where the Winter Solstice was warmer than the Summer Solstice.

The sun was out for a while before the cold damp overcast moved back in.

I better mow the tall parts of my lawn after work or I'm gonna need a brush hog by the time it dries out.

We have more sun today but there's still a cool breeze and I also came down with a stupid cold overnight.

My brother, who lives in Sweden came here hoping for some warm weather, but it could actually be warmer there than here for Wednesday and Thursday.

 

[Anti Marine Layer]

Two more cold and windy days here before we start to warm up again.

The calendar may say April but it feels more like January.

 

[Anti Marine Layer]

No wonder it feels so cold outside. There's a massive West Coast trough.

 

[Anti Marine Layer]

Another cool and windy day here, but no rain. Warmup to come.

 

[Thunder98]

Low was 38F this morning. Currently around 70F. Winds just turned back onshore.

 

[Anti Marine Layer]

Very interesting clouds this afternoon. Already much warmer.

 

[Anti Marine Layer]

We have Santa Ana winds this morning. I was not expecting that.

 

[Anti Marine Layer]

The Santa Ana Winds are getting even stronger now.

 

[Thunder98]

Almost 80F right now, temps overperforming today! Very nice weather!

 

[Tomcats Forever!]

If any of you are familiar with the Thunder Over Louisville air show and fireworks, they got cancelled this year due to the flooding.

 

[Thunder98]

High today was 79F, six degrees warmer than the forecast high of 73F
