I was on Xarelto (blood thinner) for a while after my "cardiac arrest" event.  They also put me on something to reduce my heart rate, which didn't make much sense to me, I was waking up with a pulse of 45 often.  I talked to my doctor and he cut the dose then took me off entirely.  Same with Xarelto, I was having frequent, as in daily, nose bleeds, and was bruising very easily.  They worry about clots forming when you have an atrial fib of some sort.

Anyway, I'm good now.  I get 2-3 nose bleeds in the winter when it's dry.

You're between two water bodies on that peninsula, and those water bodies don't warm up like the ones we have down here.
Even further off topic but question for @SFBadger96 because I don't know and I'm genuinely curious and basically too lazy to look it up.  

How warm/cold does SF Bay get?  Obviously the Pacific isn't changing temperature much depending on time of year and there is some water exchange under the Golden Gate but there can't be THAT much.  I would guess that has a major impact on the temperature in Oakland and further inland as compared to the temperature on the peninsula.

What, are you thinking of doing some real estate investing? :57:
If I did that, I would start with buying a property for me to actually live in.

It feels like a cop out to say “it depends“, but it depends.

San Francisco is going to be somewhat to pretty chilly basically all the time. The East Bay near the water can get comfortably warm and A bit sweaty during the summer, but nothing like the south or Midwest in the heart of summer.

Go across the hills in the east bay or into the South Bay, it can get hot. Again, not south GA hot. But 90s, occasionally 100, low humidity.

Yeah--in my suburb (on the peninsula between the Bay and the Pacific) it will get into the 90s a few days a year. Very rare that it will hit 100. We do get a little warmer than San Francisco, and a little colder in the winter. Normally it's about a 5 degree difference either way. 90 in San Francisco turns heads. That's really rare, I think.

In the winter, we drop below freezing only very occasionally. In San Francisco almost never. A typical winter morning for me is between 45 and 50. A typical summer morning is between 50 and 60--sometimes a little higher than that.

To BAB's point, the location around the Bay matters quite a bit. San Francisco is the cold point in the summer. North, South, or East it gets hotter. The further of any of those you get, the hotter it gets. San Jose can get pretty hot; Walnut Creek, and Sonoma/Napa the same. Likewise, in the winter, the further North, South, or East, the colder it gets. But, like where i live, it's rarely below freezing.

Yep. When I was there (2001) I lived in south San Jose... It was kinda funny because on the morning radio in the summer they had a pre-recorded weather thing saying it'd be overcast, clearing by midday, highs in the 90s, and tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow...

I mean, I was a good hour's drive from SF, but it's pretty rare in most of the country that you can go from a high of 98 to a high of 67 within an hour's drive...

That morning fog thing is nice in the summer. It’s crisp, and by 10:30, warm and nice.

At least from the comments on here I think it is pretty clear that @Riffraft is an outlier on the other side.  Even at that, I doubt that he'd feel the same way if he wasn't retired and able to pay people to handle things like yardwork.  I can't imagine that more than a trivial number of people would rather mow the lawn in 112 than 52.  I've worked construction and there is NO WAY I'd want to do that in Arizona.  There aren't a whole lot of people who actually consider 100 degrees comfortable. 




The grass in the desert goes dormant in the summer and in the winter. I only have to mow in the spring and fall.

Shouldn't that still be under warranty?  I think I got a year parts on labor on my last one in 2021.  10 freaking k !!
It is, for 7 years. So was the last one, but that was denied due to "salt air" causing rust.

We'll see about this one.

I'm on a blood thinner until December. Can't wait to be off of it.

We have gone from 82°F in an hour to a blizzard and 27°F, but it involved some elevation changes.

Many of the beach houses around here, even the expensive ones, use window units.  They last 1-3 years and then they simply throw them away and get new ones.

I've never seen any of my neighbors replace theirs in 5+ years.
