Weather
The combination of cold ocean water and high heat of the California mainland create the city’s characteristic fog that can cover the entire city all day during the spring and early summer. The fog is less pronounced in the eastern neighborhoods, in the late summer, and during the fall, which are the warmest months of the year.
