If you’re spending the weekend in San Francisco, get ready for that classic Bay Area weather combo—cool, misty mornings giving way to beautiful, sun-filled afternoons. Whether you’re planning to walk the Golden Gate Bridge, explore Alcatraz, or just sip coffee at an outdoor café, you’ll want to dress in layers!
What’s the Weather Looking Like?
Saturday, Feb. 22 – A Little Fog, A Lot of Sun
- Morning: Fog will roll in early, especially around the Golden Gate Bridge, Ocean Beach, and downtown. If you love that mystical, moody San Francisco vibe, this is your moment.
- Afternoon: By midday, the sun will take over, bringing mild, comfortable temperatures.
- High: 62°F (17°C) | Low: 49°F (9°C)
Sunday, Feb. 23 – More of the Same (In the Best Way Possible!)

Why Is It So Warm?
A high-pressure system moving up from Mexico is keeping things dry and mild, which means this warm trend will stick around into next week.
What to Pack & Wear
San Francisco’s weather can be a little all over the place, so here’s how to stay comfortable all day:
Layers, layers, layers! A jacket or sweater for the morning, but something lighter underneath for the afternoon.
Sunglasses & sunscreen—once the sun is out, it’s brighter than you’d expect.
A light jacket or sweater for the evening. Trust me, that ocean breeze gets chilly fast.
Best Times for Exploring
Morning (Foggy & Cool): A perfect time for a peaceful walk across the Golden Gate Bridge, grabbing coffee in North Beach, or watching the fog swirl around the city.
Afternoon (Sunny & Mild): Ideal for checking out Fisherman’s Wharf, enjoying a picnic at Dolores Park, or hopping on a cable car.
Looking Ahead: Even Warmer Days Coming!
If you’re loving the sunshine, good news—it’s sticking around! Next week’s highs could reach the upper 60s to low 70s, making for even warmer and drier weather.
San Francisco is showing off this weekend with the perfect blend of cozy fog and golden sunshine. Whether you’re visiting or just looking for an excuse to get out, enjoy it!
