• Posted Nothing More Appreciated Than a San Francisco Summer to SFist
  Admit it, the weather has been outstanding. No one can claim our high-rentian bargain of getting spectacular September weather has not been delivered in full. The beaches, parks, trails and sidewalks are the place to be weekend after weekend this month. The Love Parade was lovely and the Folsom Street Fair was crotchless chapirific. Some nights has even been warm enough to remove the long sleeves and leave the windows open overnight while the mornings...
• Posted Yes Siree Bob, It's Winter to SFist
  Nothing we can do about it now. The umbrellas are already stored by the front door (if not hopelessly lost), the ineffective heating units are on (unless they're broken) and our MUNI rides feel like we're living in some underground steam rooms. But, we love it. Really. Without having to trudge through snow or over ice-treachery we can slow our paces, put on some cozy goodness, hunker down in a warm place and enjoy...

A giant high (pressure that is) holding court over the massive expanse of the Great Basin Desert (aka Nevada) which is pushing warm inland air over the western...
• Posted Falling Into The Fall to SFist
  Quick quiz what's a high of 69 and a low of 54. Who knows it? Who does? Yep, you're right. That's the SF temperature range for the next couple months. Fortunately the direct sun will assure us splendid days still yet to come, even though some low pressure bands will make for slippery BART stairs, steamed up bus windows, and drivers performing like elderly Floridians. Yep, there's no fighting it any longer ... we're...
• Posted Yepper It Sure Blew Last Night. to SFist
  Bummer to all Friday evening outdoor outings. Ocean breezes pummeled the coast like we haven't seen since, uh, way back in uh, fog season all the way back in August. Fog and wind! What the fark? It's already October, our second and last month of summer ... Hello ... McCoy? Of course it turns out that yes, we still live in coastal Nor Cal and we're at the mercy of the Pacific Ocean's weather...
