Where I live it is often foggy by the ocean in June July and sometimes August

Because of this almost no one has an air conditioner because you might only need it a few hours on a few days of the year where temperatures might go to 80 or 85. And this is because of the truth of how Mark Twain Called it likely more than a century ago now which was "The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco."

I hit temperatures driving south from Mt. Shasta of 90 to 95 but didn't hit any hundreds. Yesterday driving home it hit 91 a couple of places too from San Francisco inland. So, this was interesting too in Driving home from the Airport with my wife. Both my daughters returned to Portland and my son was able to pick one of them up when she arrived. The other arrived during Rush hour in the evening so she likely took a cab home there to Portland from the Airport.

So, as my wife and I  settle down into our home this week to it being cold and foggy with no temperature this week above 67 degrees I'm not sure we have seen the sun yet after being home 24 hours but at least the lows haven't been below 52 degrees Fahrenheit so far.

Global Climate change this year started the Fogginess in April even before May which is very very unusual. In the past, the fog didn't start until June then last year 2017 it started in May and then this year the high and low fog started in April. What's next are the June Glooms going to start in March next year and last until (October)? Well. At least we aren't cooking like a lot of the country is now. The problem if there is one is that we still have to use our heating system if that is actually a problem instead of air conditioners which at present we don't have because we might not need one especially this year. IF I want sun I have to drive 5 to 10 to 20 miles inland and there it likely will be between 80 to 90 degrees Fahrenheit this time of year.
