Here in the San Jose area at the south end of San Francisco Bay at 10:45am PST per below satellite screen capture, we have heavy marine overcast at ground level with much drizzle and a chilly 47F temperature. I live near the red dot. Our Central Valley is that large area of white due to a long period of inversion ground fog. October and half of November were very wet that left much water on the ground that has now turned to vast areas of fog that will continue until we receive some storms with following wind to dry those areas out.
During the ski season, I really dread driving across the Central Valley when it is so foggy because some pinheaded drivers don't have the patience or common sense to drive slowly that then may cause rear end collisions as they encounter those ahead they cannot see driving slow. To the right of the valley is the Sierra Nevada with areas of snow well east where the range is highest with the continuous crest 10,000 feet to 14,500 feet.
To the south, coastal Orange and San Diego Counties are also under coastal marine overcast/fog.
