Weather & Seasons. Much of California has a Mediterranean-like climate with warm, dry summers and mild, wet winters. On the coast, the average daily high temperature hovers around 70Â°F/21Â°C and up), but can occasionally spike to 80Â°F 27Â° C or more on hottest summer days; freezing temperatures are rare, even in winter.
1. Pack and dress in layers. In Southern California, a sunny 70-degree day can feel like 80 or hotter to people from other parts of the country, while a cloudy 60-degree day can feel much chillier, thanks to ocean breezes.
