No upwelling here. The only comparable event would be when there has been a period of relatively calm sunny weather that has allowed surface temperatures to get a few degrees above average, then a particularly strong sea breeze or a warm front comes through mixing layers back down to average temperatures.
The example you posted back in your summer, of a nearby beach dropping to 11C/52F due to upwelling, is unheard of here.
