: partially warm, 87. San Diego: partially warm, 80. San Francisco: bright, 69. San Jose: partially warm, 87. Fresno: partially warm, 102. Sacramento: sunny, 102. More weather is here.AND FINALLY Today's California memory comes from Katharine Lynne Wight:

When I turned 16 in 1962, I was prepared to get a task. Thankfully my neighbor in the Oakland hills was a buyer for Capwell's outlet store in downtown Oakland. Every weekend and holidays my dad would take me and select me up. I happily worked in the Cards and Candy Department as a ‘Wrapper/Ringer.' I found out courage there, as I needed to quote the rate of the present wrapping to each client. Not everybody was pleased, obviously. I was so proud to be able to earn money all the method through college. My sweetheart would sometimes come select me up after work, and we would drive throughout the Bay Bridge to dine at the Cathay House in San Francisco's Chinatown!
