As a matter of fact, it was. I did say "my experience." I arrived in SF in October 2005, left in Dec. 2007. Rainclouds seem to have been following me around forever.

Early 2006 was extremely wet. I remember getting caught in some crazy downpours. There were a number of floods down in Santa Cruz county that took out roads and caused mudslides. In The City, March 2006 was a record setting rainfall.

I still remember thinking - wow, they oversold me on the climate. And then it stopped raining at the end of March. For 8 months. Plus it seemed like the thermometer was pinned at 72 degrees every day.

You say that like it's a bad thing.

Quite the opposite. As I said, I felt that I was oversold on the climate from my arrival in October till late March. Then, uh, wow.
