The most San Francisco thing ever! I had just texted my neighbors how much I enjoy hearing cruise ships playing the Love Boat theme as they head out of the bay and then I get this Citizen alert with someone complaining about the loud noise! Maybe 30 seconds between these two events. #SanFrancisco

the pass itself at 3682 meters is a beautiful sandy beach. I’ve been over a couple of the Sierra passes before but this one was so unexpected. (I was probably hypoxic.) (2/2) #MountainMonday

if a fog wore pants
San Francisco Chronicle infographic with a drawing of the Golden Gate Bridge with four different fog configurations. 

Fog's golden measuring stick
Top of tower: 746 feet
HIGH PRESSURE
Roadway: 245 feet
Golden Gate Bridge
Coastal fog forms through an interaction
between wind, temperature and ocean
currents. But a key factor to the vertical
extent is the inversion, a boundary between
cool, moist marine air and hot, dry air above.
Shallow inversion: About 250 feet
When high-pressure systems expand over the
West Coast, fog is limited to a shallow but
dense layer beneath the inversion, just at and
below the deck of the Golden Gate Bridge.
LOW PRESSURE
Typical inversion: Around 600 feet
On a typical day. the marine layer swallows the
bridge, hovering between the deck and the
tops of the towers, with the inversion acting as
a lid above.
Deep inversion: 1,500+ feet
When low-pressure systems intrude on the
coast, the inversion can rise to 1,500 feet or
higher, pushing clouds high above the
bridge's towers.

Ken Gonzales-Day Excavates LACMA’s Collection in the New Metro D Line Station
As part of the Metro D Line Subway Extension, a new station has opened right next to LACMA, making the museum more accessible than ever to communities across Los Angeles County. Angelenos can now take the D Line to Wilshire/Fairfax Station, directly across the street from the museum. But the D Line doesn’t just bring you to LACMA—the Wilshire/Fairfax Station itself brings art inspired by the museum’s collection to riders.
