Here is the Catalina Eddy that blocked the winds in the Leo to Sunset corridor and created San Diego winds into the upper teens.

The eddy is dying now at 3:30PM but it is probably too late for the Long Beach area.

That looks like the classic wind killer. Thanks for posting it. We've met the enemy, and the enemy is Eddy.

Good for San Diego; I would guess they are about the most wind-starved in all of California. In Nor-Cal we call the wind killer the dreaded heat up! When San Fran hits about 76 or above you need to look for other activities.
