In "Sunny California" tonight here in Sacramento it is forecast to be 29 F. But the high was 54 F this afternoon. Rain tomorrow through Thursday. Most years it gets down to the low 20's or even the teens for a night or three during winter. Nearly every summer goes over 110 F, but with low humidity, and usually cool sea breeze in the evenings, with night time lows in the 60's to 70's. It is not like Minnesota where I was born, with it's "shovel or swat" seasons, and not like Honolulu with those 'boring' trade winds, where most every day you can wear a flowered shirt and shorts. but there is also a good chance of rain. Humans settle all those places and many more, some of them at the limits of survival. We inhabit nearly all of the planet, sometimes to our detriment. My garage/shop has no heat, no air conditioning, and no insulation. It works fine for a retired guy, get to choose which hours to be working there.
