When I lived out there, in Redondo Beach, the air to the east of us had a medium brown tint to it. When the Santa Anna winds blew from the east, they blew the brown air to the west out to the horizon over the Pacific and then you could see that there are actually mountains in the distance as a backdrop in the east for the LA city skyline.
