Dressing in layers is the only way to enjoy SF, because the
temperature (and fog situation) can change drastically depending on
the time of day and which area you are around the City. My house is
on the foggy side of town.

When I lived in Alameda, I don't recall ever turning on the heat in my
house. I wore short or 3/4 sleeves year round but did have a lightweight
shirt jacket that I needed on occasion when I was outside.

But when we went to SF, I learned to bring at least a sweatshirt with me as
it could get colder there.

You must be near the bridge they claim is there. We tried to get a look
at it several times, but all I saw was fog.

Ha! That must have been a particularly foggy day. Fog comes in all
sorts of ways, my favorite is when it flows under the GG Bridge like a
river of fog.

From 280 you can see the fog bank peeking over the coastal mountains
and there's a low spot (gap) where the fog spills through like a
waterfall. Love it!
