May 9

which was to L.A. and the first couple mornings there, I noticed it was "foggy" and figured - well this is by the ocean so... like the east coast - a "marine layer". But then I realized the "fog" was yellowish and then it finally connected!

The city sits up against and meanders through the hills/mountains and the general air flow is west to east. So those hills/mountains can and do block the air flow and just won't allow the smog to mix out.
