Shoulda done your research beforehand. "The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco." - widely attributed to Mark Twain. And you don't have to drive 120 miles to get the thermal shock effect. Sometimes 120 meters is enough, as when crossing the ridge between San Jose and Santa Cruz.
