Well, here in the town of Marina, near Monterey in California, we're
having our typical summertime fog. Quite a change from earlier in the
season when we had sunny days. We have had the odd occasional warm but
cloudy day. It's been fairly "normal" where I live at least. I have
enjoyed the sunny days, however. I remember one July where there was fog
the entire month, no sunny days!
