Weather
The southern California Coast enjoys a mild Mediterranean climate with over 300 days of sunshine per year. Winters are dry due to a semi-permanent high pressure system that sits in the Pacific Ocean and holds storm tracks well to the north. Warm air moving over the cool ocean in summer creates fog that moves in during the evening and early morning hours but almost always dissipates by midday.
The average year-round high temperature is 65°F (19°C) with temperatures ranging from high 40′s to mid 60′s in late January.
Attire
Attire for all conference activities and social functions will be casual. A sweater or jacket is suggested for outdoor functions.
