Unless there is a Santa Ana condition or a Great Basin High (hot winds blowing from the east off the desert) it doesn't get really hot in coastal San Diego county. The forecast from now until Oct is late night an early morning coastal fog that burns off around 10 am. The marine layer is our natural air conditioning that keeps us cool while the deserts bake in the heat. Expect lows at night in the 60's (you need a light jacket) with daytime highs in the 70s or 80's. If you go inland a few miles temperatures will soar. For example, if you go to the Wild Animal Park temperatures will be 10-20 degrees warmer. Typically the inland areas are in the 90's in the summer. It's not like Maryland in the summer with oppressive heat and humidy. The humidy is low so the heat index is about the same as the temperature. When it is 75 it feels 75.

sunny year-round! NEVER snows!
of course the exact temperatures vary thoughout different areas, but it is a very mild - not too hot, not too cold. you can buy short-sleeve tops to wear in the day and long-sleeves if you plan on going out at night.

Yeah, the weather here is overcast. It's sunny during the day and gets cooler as the day goes by. I'd bring a light sweater because it gets cold...in my mind. It hasn't gotten warm yet....and it will. I only say that because it hasn't gotten really hot yet. It's not freezing. However, it's a San Diego "cold". When it gets under 70, I complain how chilly it is. You'll have fun in San Diego. Just go to Phil's BBQ and have the full baby back rib dinner with fries and coleslaw. If you want pizza, go to The Venetian and have some pepperoni pizza. If you want some hamburgers, go to Corvette Diner and have a shake.
