Blue sky view from Golden Gate Bridge to Angel Island across blue green waters San Francisco Bay with advection fog, California


Blue sky view towards Angel Island from Golden Gate Bridge. Summer mists and fog are commonly seen over the waters of San Francisco Bay. Hot air over the land rises, creating low pressure which draws in cool air from the offshore California Current. The warm air overriding the cold air is cooled to its dewpoint, giving rise to a coastal advection fog, here rising over Angel Island.
