Stratus clouds can be at fault for this "June Gloom". Their horizontal layering can identify these clouds. Stratus clouds usually do not usually create rain, but they can bring a large amount of drizzle, fog, and mist. Stratus clouds form when weak, uplifting currents lift a thin layer of air high enough up in the atmosphere to a point where condensation can occur. In addition, they can be formed when a layer of air is cooled from below to its dew point and water vapor condenses into liquid droplets. "June Gloom" does not have much affect on the population of San Diego, however, it has the ability to ruin an intended beach day for locals and for vacationers. Therefore, San Diego has a relatively nice climate but can experience large amounts of fog and stratus clouds from May-June.
