SAN FRANCISCO
I spent four days in San Francisco in early September of 2024. I was super lucky with the weather having constant sunshine and a temperature that lingered around 21°C. Despite being on the west coast, the city climate is heavily affected by the bay, making it much more mild than other cities in the vicinity. This is perfect conditions for walking around the city in my opinon. But bring layers nevertheless, it can get chilly.
