SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA FINALLY ENJOYING SOME TRUE HEAT!
With another mid-90 degree day for Downtown Los Angeles and a low of 71 degrees, it sures looks and finally FEELS liek it’s summer across Southern California with even those beaches seeing plenty of warm sun and highs that have climbed into the upper 70s. This is more like it, eh! The added moisture in the air has likely helped LA and other areas stay warm at night and the very warm daytime highs thanks to a further westwards oush of the high, something not seen much of this summer and thus this helped supress the typical onshore advancement of the marine layer allowing even morning sunshine and less cool sea breezes by afternoon, I do say that winds blowing out of the east over inland areas likely penetrated some of those backstreets within the beach communities, therefore rising temps, taht typically would be held down by what has been a more dominant onshore flow and not on offshore as the ridge has been too far east and that has allowed troughiness to prevail up and down the West Coast bringing thicker, deeper marine layers and cooler temps.
Vagaries of the Weather
India & Sub-Continental Asia Weather

Mumbai Reaches 100″ Mark:
Mumbai Colaba and S’Cruz, both have reached the 100″ mark, for this year’s rainfall.
Within a few hours between them , both the official IMD stations in Mumbai touched the 2500 mms ( 100″ ) mark, on 18th. August.
I have no records or data to verify this, but I feel this could be the earliest date ever, for Mumbai to touch 2500 mms.
As on 19th. morning, Colaba totalled 2553 mms, and S’cruz 2582 mms.
On Wednesday, Colaba recieved 51 mms and S’Cruz 90 mms. against the “vagaries estimate of 55 mms (average).
This also means, both stations are above their individual annual quota.

TODAY’S COND
After a cloudy, even rainy overnight, this held night temps in the 50s rather than 40s of the previous night. A day of sun and cloud with some isolated showers. A heavy downpour this morning but it felt warm when the sun was shinning.
Thanks for reading.
