Having lived a few short miles from where the OP lives, I can assure you that area is a chit hole of the first degree.
Well, if it's the San Diego area, I'd agree..
I was there from Oct '66 - Sept '69 and quite frankly froze my azz off.. Of course, that was at the sub piers at Pt. Loma Navy submarine base.. Feb '68 - came up on deck to be greeted with about an inch of snow on the sub.. Nearly wore out my peacoat in SD.. Screw that..
