Early June has ushered in the familiar dreariness of “June gloom” across Hollywood, affecting everyone, including well-known celebrities who are feeling the chill of the cloudy, drizzly conditions.
Both locals and visitors are encountering a dense marine layer that has led to a noticeable dip in temperature, overshadowing the area’s typically bright atmosphere. This somber weather has penetrated the neighborhoods of numerous celebrity residents, prompting them to turn to social media to share their reactions.
For instance, Miley Cyrus took to her Instagram story to share her sentiments about the relentless rain, showing her followers her backyard submerged under a gray, rainy sky. Likewise, Ariana Grande expressed her mood through a tweet that included an image of her dog snuggled in a blanket, perfectly encapsulating her feelings about the rainy day in LA.
This stretch of bad weather is also impacting scheduled outdoor activities, with upcoming concerts and festivals either delayed or outright canceled. One notable casualty was the “Make Music Pasadena” festival, originally set for this Saturday, which was called off due to adverse weather conditions.
The phenomenon known as “June gloom” typically strikes Southern California in June, driven by a persistent marine layer originating from the Pacific Ocean. This weather pattern generally persists for a few weeks, but there are instances where it lingers throughout the month.
Despite these gloomy days, residents of Los Angeles are adapting, using the cooler weather as an opportunity to engage in activities like hiking and picnicking that are normally less appealing in the standard heat. For those who prefer indoor activities, it’s a perfect time to binge-watch their favorite films and television series.
Meanwhile, celebrities are also having to adjust their routines, waiting for the sunshine to make its inevitable return. Until then, the different kind of shade they’re casting in Hollywood is far from the typical glitz and glam.
