San Francisco, a city typically known for its cool summers and persistent fog, has been basking in its hottest March for at least two decades, as a rare winter heatwave grips the US West. This unusual warmth stands in stark contrast to the powerful snowstorms that have recently blanketed the Midwest and eastern half of the country, causing thousands of flight cancellations.
Residents in the Bay Area have been shedding layers, with dogs and sunbathers flocking to Crissy Field, enjoying the shimmering Golden Gate Bridge. "It feels like summer already in March. That’s crazy, but I love it," remarked dog walker Justyce Roliz. "The dogs, they love running in the water. They love to cool off. They’re loving it."
