You lot are right in the hit-zone for El Nino variations aren't you? I'd guess that can be a mixed blessing!
Yes, SF is generally at the northern edge of the major impact, so it really depends on how the fire hose wiggles. Some El-Niño years are really wet, but sometimes everything misses us.
The city also has epically diverse microclimates. I live close to the ocean, without any hills in the way, so the fog just doesn't go away all summer. We might've had a combined total of 14 full-sun days since spring. Up until this week, I could count on my fingers, the days when I didn't wear a light jacket and sweater to work.
