I lived in Redding for about 20 yrs.
San Francisco is often considered Northern California, so we considered ourselves southern Oregon.
Different strokes for different folks. That's about the normal low temperature around here for the month of January. Actually, it's a little above the normal lows. The average high for January is 27*, with the average low being 8*. When I was a kid, we'd generally have about 2 weeks in January where the lows were in the -20* range. The record low for the month of January was -37* in 1951.First snow yesterday, 4-5 inches.
Cold this morning.
