Yes, it was. However two points bear mentioning: 1) The temperature in SF proper is almost always 10 to 25F colder than the southern and eastern suburbs, especially in the summer. I remember quite a few days last summer when it was in the 90sF where i live, and in the 70sF in SF. This is due to both the fact that the city is surrounded on 3 sides by water, and the fog that covers it for about 15 hours/day. 2) The warmest winter i've ever had was the winter i've lived in the bay area. Spending my entire life living somewhere in the northeastern USA, it was a true pleasure not to see any snow all winter long. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ L.
