Why does it get so foggy in Los Angeles at night?

Low Elevation? Close to the Ocean? (precipitation)

Smog…?

Do you live there? I am so jealous.

It’s what they call the “marine layer” – moist, cool air from the ocean meets warm, dry air inland. It’s typical almost year-round and usually burns off by late morning.

Yeah I’ve noticed that too. Lately whenever I’m outside after 8pm or so it’s really foggy. Especially on the west side. I kinda like it though. Makes everything seem kinda surreal.

if youve ever been driving near the beach like at 3 am its sooo cool. You cant see within 10 ft in front of you though.Sucks if you happen to be driving on the freeway at that hour. i love it ^_^

yea I was driving through malibu canyon once at like 2am and it was terrifying. I couldn’t see anything except headlights and street lights. Beautiful, but terrifying to drive through.
