The thing that gets most people, is our weather... It doesn't snow during the winter months, but that's not the problem. Summer months, tend to catch 1st time visitors to San Francisco, off guard. It's not warm, compared to the rest of The World, during the Traditional Summer Months, of this hemisphere. There are several options: visit during the months when the weather is warmer... incorporate layers... or carry a shoulder bag of some type. Depending, and this is generally speaking, because there are exceptions to the SF WEATHER RULE...depending on the time of day that you leave your abode, you may find that you'll layer on/off about 3 times per day. San Francisco, like Rome, is built upon 7 main hills...We have hills, with serious degrees of incline/decline for your @#$... Leave the CUTE/FLY shoes in the hotel room, do your DOGS a righteous favour, and wear the most comfy pair of kicks you own. If VANITY, or STYLE is an issue, reach into that shoulder bag I suggested, pull out the CUTE/FLY Footwear, once you reach your destination and then make a change. Like most places in the world, our weather is constantly evolving...this statement however is based on the weather patterns since I moved here in April 1981: December, January, & Febuary are colder (not like NYC) and rainy... End of Febuary, March things start to warm, and usually the rain has stopped... April and May are generally The Bomb, at least to me...lots of temporate days June and July are notorious for The San Francisco Fog...Our Natural Bulit In Air Conditioner. It's No Joke. If you live here, no big deal...but to the unexpected visitor, armed with shorts and a polo shirt, let's just say...THE PAIN, oh THE PAIN ! Even if the day starts out to be gorgeous, you better layer on/off, carry the bag, or pay the price. Like clock work, between the hours of 3pm/15:00, and 4pm/16:00 the fog and wind roll in...right around the same time, the temperature starts to drop. Not a very nice thing, considering that it might be June 15th, and you just left YOUR TOWN/CITY, where the temperatures were somewhere between 25.5/78 to 35/95 degrees celsius/fahrenheit on average... Middle of August, September, & October, are historically when SF Summers start November is the Wild Card Month, meaning, if we're having a great year weather wise, November can and has been nice. Likewise if the weather all year has been off, and not consistant during that year, November tends to be so so as well... Leave a Comment

Downtown, it can get sunny and warm. Sometimes along the coast (Ocean Beach, Pacifica, down Highway 1) it can get foggy and chilly. Usually, a windbreaker or a light jacket will suffice. Sandals are ok, but if you are interested in walking the streets of SF, maybe consider bringing a pair of comfy shoes (because of the hills, etc.) The weather is so finicky in SF that you can be in the cold & fog of the avenues, and then hit Japan town a block later and be sunny and warm. Just be prepared. Sonoma in Napa Valley is usually quite warm, so shorts and a t-shirt (or tank top) is sufficient. However, bring a windbreaker or a light jacket for the night, or if you want to go to SF downtown.
