Title: Beautiful Morning on the Rim of The World
Post by: Bill B on April 02, 2022, 05:05:19 PM
Got up early this morning to do some grocery shopping at Lake Arrowhead.  These pictures are from the Red Rock Wall Lookout on Highway 18 at approximately 5,200 feet.  The cloud deck looks to be around 2,000 feet.  On a clear day you can see Catalina Island to the southwest.  Sadly today isn't one of them.  The first picture is looking east and the second is looking west.  Either way what a glorious morning to be alive.  Billy

Bill, are they really clouds or is it really fog? Or is fog really clouds. I should know because I was in Weather Service in the Navy, but that was 62 years ago. I'm just glad I can remember what day of the week it is. Today is Tues. isn't it?  :-\  :-\      Rudy

I can report from sea-level that it's clouds. Very overcast down here. A good day to get some work done.

As they say on TV "late night and early morning low clouds and fog". Probably 200 days a year where I live

 Nice view from up there Bill. That fog looks pretty thick. A good day to have radar on the boat, or sunglasses for guys like you !!

Truly a beautiful sight and thank you Bill for sharing!  If you look down into those clouds...you see me!  ;D . 
Ted - No need for radar, it is a seasonal "marine layer" that we get that has to do with ocean air and moisture migrating inland at night.  When Bill took those photos I am guessing the ceiling down here was probably 2000', we could see just fine and that cloud layer meant - NO Wind!!!!!  Anyone flying would have to deal with it, but at ground/sea level not an issue. - john

I love the marine inversion layer. Nice and cool until the afternoon when it burs off. I get a kick out of the way the weather announcers call it 'June-Gloom'...I call it good working weather. Anyone who works outdoors loves it.

Goodwin's wasn't good enough so you needed to head to Stater Bros at the Village or did you hit Jensen's in Blue Jay... always my favorite!

You would never get my wife on that road !! We took the highway to the sun one time and she almost died from fright. There are still finger grip marks in the center counsel.
