Imagine believing SF proper has the best weather in the country

Your year-round weather isn't even as good as neighboring counties.

- someone who lived on the SF peninsula for years, and often regretted trading idyllic weather for a cold, damp dinner night in SF.

You're trading off some pretty hot days for some cold, damp days. I'd probably choose SF in general for the weather and certainly on the scale of the country as a whole, SF is pretty good.

I like SF weather overall, but the Bay Area as a whole generally has fantastic weather. Despite being an SF resident, personally I'd say the peninsula (south of SF) and the most of the East Bay have better weather than SF.

The South Bay and the far East Bay can get a little too hot for my taste, but plenty of people prefer that to year round fog/wind in much of SF.

I've definitely been in SF when "the coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco" applied. That said, I'm generally not a fan of heat.

On the scale of the whole country the entire west coast is "pretty good".

SF is definitely not the best out of the entire coast, and if you consider its cost of living, the weather is trash for the cost. It's notoriously cold and wet for a substantial part of the year.
