Hi Gang,

Looking at over a dozen cams about the Bay Area and at the satellite imagery (Below) I am seeing an apocalyptic scene filled with reddish smoke intermingled with marine layer fog. Streetlights are still on at 11 AM and the freeways are clogged with car headlights. If you are an air-breathing mammal you might want to preserve your lungs and take a pass on kiting or windsurfing today. Be aware that if you get into trouble offshore the Coast Guard is unlikely to be able to find you. I am sticking to the current but with NE winds just aloft and the sun obstructed in most of the Central Valley do not expect reliable winds.

Mike:

Yes, a truly bizarre and unsettling weather condition today!

I was wondering if all this smoke over the Sacramento Valley may have killed the expected marine surge (by cooling the valley)?

Smoke=Nature's evil air conditioner
