🇺🇸 Gilbert vs 🇺🇸 San Francisco

Gilbert is one of the fastest-growing cities in the United States and sits in the southeastern Phoenix valley. Once known as the 'Hay Capital of the World,' its transformation from agricultural to suburban has created a rapidly intensifying urban heat island. Summer temperatures are slightly moderated by remaining agricultural land in the area.

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.
