I take care of my Mom's garden for her and it was so cold so late in the season that the plants barely had time to get going before the fall freeze happened! 60 degrees -- totally nuts for this time of year. But, I would also say, SF is unseasonally dry and warm for this time of year as well. As for jobs and spaces for lease -- every time I go up to visit I see more and more storefronts available. The number of foreclosures is insane, too -- my Mom's house has lost $150k in value because of the excess housing glut. Bad times, for sure.
