  • What Is June Gloom
    DOCKETED Docket 12-AFC-02 Number: Project Title: Huntington Beach Energy Project TN #: 202685 Document Title: What is June Gloom Description: Wikipedia document describing Huntington Beach's weather pattern consisting of frequent inversions Filer: Monica Rudman Organization: Monica Rudman Submitter Role: Public Submission 7/13/2014 11:09:39 PM Date: Docketed Date: 7/13/2014 June Gloom 1 June Gloom "June Gloom" is also the title of songs by The Like, Brad Laner, and The Ditty Bops. June Gloom is a southern California term for a weather pattern that results in cloudy, overcast skies with cool temperatures during the late spring and early summer, most commonly in the month of June. Low-altitude stratus clouds are formed over the ocean, then transported over the coastal regions by the wind. The overcast skies often are accompanied by fog and drizzle, though usually not rain. June Gloom in southern California is caused by the marine layer effect common to the West Coast, and is enhanced by the Catalina eddy local to southern California. May and June Gloom conditions prevailing at Seal Beach in late morning, June 2013. June together are usually the cloudiest months in coastal Southern California. June Gloom has other colloquial names if the same weather pattern occurs in May, July, or August. June Gloom is stronger in years associated with a La Niña, and weaker or nonexistent in years with an El Niño. This weather pattern occurs in other parts of the world where climates and conditions are similar. Scientists study the cloud fields that make up June Gloom to increase understanding of cloud behavior at the onset of drizzle and precipitation.
