Nothing but sunshine, lollipops, and rainbows everywhere today and tomorrow.
Sitting under a clear sky with no wind to speak of for a pleasant change. Temps to approach the sixties in the afternoon this weekend. You take the good with the bad and this is definitely the good. I'll take it with a smile.
I had my hospital room set at 65° which was perfect. When I left, it was in the '80s outside. I'm sitting here now in my bedroom with the fan running, and contemplating turning the AC on...
I love seeing 60 degrees appreciated. As I've said a million times, 60° here sends my fellow natives scurrying for coats and gloves, and bitching and moaning about how cold it is.
I just laugh...or remind them I've experienced real cold weather--and this ain't it!
That's right, I forgot--you're visiting your brother(?).
June won't be sizzling hot yet; the 100+ temperatures typically run from July through early October, with occasional appearances in, you know, January!
We'll be having our "June Gloom" weather, which is hot but overcast (something to do with onshore ocean breezes, I believe).
Of course, tourists will be out in force. They are year-round, but definitely worse in summer.

That reminds me of when I was stationed in Homestead Florida. I arrived in a short sleeved Hawaiian styled shirt ( It was late 1970's) it was 70° and everybody patrolling on base had heavy jackets on. I couldn't understand it until a year later when I got acclimated.

I've been back home in SoCal for 13 years, and still haven't turned back into a weather native. I don't consider 65° freezing. When I go to the Rose Parade, I'm not bundled from head to toe in a parka, earmuffs, gloves, hat, scarf, etc. I don't turn the heater on all 'winter.' I roll my eyes at my fellow natives, the weather wimps.
By the way, my father-in-law lived in Homestead for a few years before he died. He told me about its rebuilding after it was literally wiped off the face of the Earth by that hurricane. People's resilience is amazing!
