Cal. spans crossword clue
51 Across · WSJ Crossword, August 17, 2026 · 3 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Cal. spans” is YRS. It appears as 51 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of August 17, 2026, a Monday puzzle titled “Back Lot” by Kevin Shustack, and it fills 3 squares running left to right from row 11, column 13 of the 15×15 grid.
A plural clue takes a plural answer, which is why the entry ends in S. The entry begins with Y and ends with S, and contains 0 vowels and 3 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Monday puzzles are the most approachable of the week, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
