MB, you're in the Bay Area, aren't you? The weather there used to mystify me... May would be insanely hot, and then the weather always seemed to get a lot chillier during the true summer months (the coldest I've ever been in my life was one time when I was out there in June, and we did a trip over to Alcatraz. I swear, I was almost hypothermic).
Hope you get some relief soon - a nice, foggy day sounds just about right for you now!
No, it's great now. Temps are back in the high 70's. It's perfect! Yeah, we usually get 2 or 3 periods, maybe a week at a time, between May and Aug. when we'll be in the 90's and 100's. Then comes September . . . . .all bets are off in September . . . HOT. I love living here. I can't complain about anything weather wise, (despite my bi-otching when it's hot). At least I know it WILL go away. Becca out in the Central Valley and muffy out in Sacramento can get stuck with temps like that for long stretches. And bmac and Bailey down in So. Cal. . . . whew.
You and Samuel Clemens must have had similar experiences. Did he really say, "the coldest winter I ever spent was summer in San Francisco?"

There are literally about 4 dozen "microclimates" in the Bay Area. San Francisco is usually at least 10-20 degrees colder than here, (we're 20 miles south), and for every mile you go further south, temps go up a degree. Cross the bay, (10 miles?), and temps are again 10 to 20 degrees higher than here. It's crazy.
Guys just ignore me, like I said, I can't complain. And I shouldn't.
