When we drove up to San Fransisco from San Diego we got in the car with typical San Diego wonderful weather. We wanted to avoid LA so we went to the east to get to a route to go east of LA.
Our first pee stop was some gas place and the temp was over 100 and just brutal. I had noticed of course having to crank up the AC on my 911 to max as we left the coast. We were happy to get back to SF and the high was 55 degrees in July. Needles , CA was the hottest, at 118 as I headed home from Monterey. Again, that morning I had on a jacket, and a few hours later it was stupid hot.

I lived in EC for years. The winters are nice. There was a lot of transplants from San Diego as we were leaving. It was cheaper to buy in the valley and commute 2 hours each way than buy in SD. This in turn drove the prices up on housing and of course the bubble popped. Lots of empty houses left behind.
EC is nicer than Bakersfield!
