The Mission's all-time extremes tell the story of a city that rarely goes to war with its weather — but occasionally does. The neighborhood hit 106° on September 1, 2017 during the Bay Area's historic heat event, and plunged to 27° on December 11, 1932, the same day it squeezed out a remarkable 0.8" of snow. Its wettest day on record dropped 5.54" in a single November 1994 storm.
The Mission's temperature range is famously narrow — monthly highs span just 16 degrees, from a cool 55° in early January to a peak of 71° in late September, making late summer and early fall the clear sweet spot for visitors. Winter brings the rain, with the last week of December averaging 1.33" of precipitation. If you're chasing warmth, aim for September; if you want to dodge the wet, avoid December through February.
