🇺🇸 Fort Worth vs 🇺🇸 San Francisco

Fort Worth west of Dallas is where the West begins — the city transitions from the humid Blackland Prairie to the drier rolling plains. This means slightly drier and hotter summers than Dallas and more pronounced cold fronts (blue northers) arriving from the west. The Trinity River creates some local weather influence.

San Francisco's climate is shaped by its position on a peninsula surrounded by the Pacific Ocean and San Francisco Bay. The coastal fog (Karl the Fog) rolls in through the Golden Gate each summer afternoon, keeping temperatures mild year-round. The city has dramatically different microclimates — the Sunset District fog-bound while the Mission basks in sun on the same day.
