Even those of us who enjoy the crisp, electric chill that our glacial summer weather provides (hi!), we've had it with fog, scarfs and sweaters in August. Thankfully, according to Weather Underground, we'll see a bit of a heatwave this week. San Francisco will see temperatures hitting the 80s this week, so, if you haven't already, you should perfect your sick voice and play hooky tomorrow.
A few suggestions?
- Dolores Park (will someone turn the park into one big Slip 'n' Slide, please?)
- Yerba Buena Park (Dolores Park could get crowded)
- Ocean Beach (beware of riptides, cold water)
- Baker Beach (where nudity prevails)
- Sunnyside Playground (perfect for little kids)
- Matinee movie (air-conditioning and Diet Coke)
- Head down to Santa Cruz (just stay away from the Boardwalk)
As previously mentioned, today is also a Spare the Air day, with the Bay Area Air Quality Management District issuing its first smog alert of this summer. Tomorrow we could see the same.
Days when we get to write about slight changes in the temperature? God, it feels good to be a Californian.
