I'm too coastal to get to what's forecast for inland today... 74 degrees. I think I'll be lucky to see 70. Which, honestly, is still a bit chilly for me. At least I'll get to wear my new brown leather jacket! LOL @ Pamy! I have a long, wool, black coat. Looks very New Yorker-ish. And I wear it with a muffler/scarf, and gloves. Like, Friday night, when I went out to dinner (we walked two blocks to the restaurant). I was COLD even wearing all that. (Oh yeah, with a long sleeved shirt and a vintage sweater on underneath! <grin>) ETA: When I wear that coat, people ask me if I'm from back east? Huh? LOL

It is relative! Leather jacket in 70 degree weather?! I'd be sweatin'. I'm in the Chicago 'burbs. Current temp is 26, but with wind and humidity it feels like 17.

I'm not far from Color, and even at this temp it is not at all unusual to once in a while see some wearing shorts!

Hehehe... that's how we tell who's the tourists around here. They are the ones in shorts and t-shirts, while the rest of us are wearing leather jackets!

Costa, We are opposite here in the Northwest, when it reaches 60 degrees, the locals are in shorts and t-shirts. Whoo-hooo! The tourists (and first year Californians), well, they are in parkas and mucklucks.

When I lived in the Bay Area, I used to feel sorry for all those tourists walking across the Golden Gate Bridge in July in the blowing fog, wearing tank tops and shorts. Brrrrr!!!! Mark Twain said, "The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco." Very true!

LOL... the last time I went to SF to visit, I ended up having to buy a sweatshirt from a street vendor. That danged fog! And the same thing happened when I went to Boston in the summertime... we were walking the Freedom Trail and it was really cold and drizzly, and another street vendor got my twenty bucks (for a hoodie).
