In the late evening we are close enough to the coast line that the evening marine layer moves in. Its basically thick fog that doesn't quite get down on the ground. Every morning this time of year it takes until about 10:AM for the sun to burn it off. The closer you get to the beach the longer it takes to burn off and sometimes it doesn't. But where we are It typically burns off by 9:30 or so leaving us with perfect So Cal Weather. It gets thicker in April, May, And then in the June Gloom hits and the beaches are often covered in grey all day. It insulates the warmth in so its never excessively cold! Shorts and flip flop weather year round.

I've seen the fog so thick that you could barely see your hand in front of your face. I had to take a bus to LA because of fog at Lindbergh Field after boot camp in Dec of 61.

Oh you just made one of the last fog days here... in 62 they out lawed fog in So Cal as it wasn't earth friendly. By doing so It made the roads and air travel safer... Now some 50 years later the environmentalists want to allow it again as it reflects the sun and decreases global warming... But seriously right along the coast line it gets really thick at times. It can run inland thought some of the valleys as well and play havoc with the traffic. This will teach me to open my mouth. Its 12:00 noon and no sun today as of yet? Go Figure!

Know what you mean. Sometime in late Nov, early Dec 1965 I caught the fog just out of Santa Ana heading to Pendleton about 1 in the morning. Put the left headlight of my 36 on the outside yellow line of 101/5 and hung my head out the window so I could see all the way to the San Onofre exit. That was back when it was only 2 lanes on either side.
