Thank goodness, go fly over the desert and not a city of a million people. Loud clowns
Bummer. I went on another Saturday different year, and it was cancelled the following Sunday
ok!!
I was there today I was sad it was canceled
The F35-B was spectacular to see hovering over the water.
good, thier unnecessary air show is just wasting fuel and contributing to global warming with thier emissions –
When you can tell they aren’t locals 😂 His name is Karl the fog
I'm glad they were canceled, they've been buzzing the city and creating unnecessary NOISE since Thursday, and it's f**king annoying to us San Franciscans.
Karl the fog
Booooooooo bunch of scary cats😂
I was there at the Golden Gate Bridge for 5 hours today… barely any planes flew. 1 flew around by itself.
Then 1 of the newer fighter jets, I believe an F35… then eventually 5 or 6 of the blue angels but it was very short lived…
To cloudy, foggy etc…
YIPEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!
I was there Yesterday (Friday) and it was perfect weather 🫢
We were waiting for take off in Alameda. Maybe tomorrow 😊.
Was sad to hear this so I walked home
Thanks Biden
They didn't want the jets to get vandalized and looted by the fine Oakland citizens that trek across the bridge.
aw man….. i was there…
thanks Karl…
SF just had a heat wave which is usual for late September, early October. People new to the area were whining about the heat and lack of AC. The rest of us knew the fog would roll in and cool us off. Yesterday was perfect weather, sunny without being too hot. Plenty of photos were taken and posted of the Blue Angels practicing. Sad that the good weather didn’t hold for another day or two but that’s life in a beach town. (SF is surrounded by water on three sides giving us weather not unlike Santa Cruz)
They were flying last year in fog. Someone is lying.
I was also there, even in a boat for a different view 😢 but safety first for the pilots
They need to do these shows at the end of September when the weather is hot and clear skies.
Doing them in the middle of October is a dumb idea.
Cold weather and foggy skies every year at this time
Bad scheduling this late in the year.
I was there today, the United 777 show was amazing and the F-22 was really the highlight. So I would say I wasn't too disappointed
Why can’t the show start an hour early? I’m 44 years old and a native to SF. I go to these shows and take mental notes of the fog causing cancellation. I’ve said to many friends that the show should start an hour early as the fog tends to roll in at 3pm. I figure it would be a smart idea with the chances being slim to cancel the blue Angels show
Fat Albert flew around 3pm, and that was it.
My relatives & I were in SF a day prior. As we were walking around in downtown trying to find a place to eat we heard those jets making multiple rounds high, high above for practicing
