Marine Layer

Clic sur l'image pour l'agrandir


«Louis» has commented in many recent posts about the hazy sky. The cause of the haze has been a heavy marine layer, a.k.a. high fog, that has hung over the Bay late in the day, returning early in the evening. Thus it has never quite really burned off for the last few weeks. Here is the marine layer moving in at 1800 hrs, obscuring Angel Island, Sausalito, Tiburon, Marin County and the Golden Gate Bridge. Also obscured were our normal views of the Bay Bridge, Treasure Island, Yerba Buena Island, Alcatraz and San Francisco. That's Albany Point on the left and Point Isabel on the right.

It makes for a beautiful view and it will make you appreciate the view even more when it finally burns off. We've had precious few foggy mornings this year; I think today was perhaps the 3rd one of 2010!

le brouillard tombe , cela fait penser au film d'horreur "Fog" de J Carpenter

That's a great shot — gray coming and going.

How gorgeous! It looks like a mirage. I never knew fog could be so pretty! Or maybe it's because you took it ;D

Interesting...we've had several days of haze, too, broken yesterday by a rain, but it's still cloudy. I love the pastels here, especially the area in orange.
