SoCal residents: What is the weather like around Thanksgiving?

[KitchenWitch]

Will be traveling there and want to know what to pack!

(Hi Peggy!)

1. If we have Santa Ana conditions

there will be a hot, dry wind blowing and temps could be up in the 90's to 100 depending where you will be staying.

You will need a light jacket at night, no matter what the day time temps are.

Thanksgiving is usually really nice here, but who can tell, it might even rain.

2. We will be in Orange County

[livetohike]

3. Not far from me

:hi:

Just be sure to bring a light jacket. Once the sun goes down, it is chilly.

The fall is the best time of year to be here, imo.

5. How close to Pendleton are you?

[livetohike]

7. About five miles from the back gate

Will you be coming here?

[KitchenWitch]

12. Not sure...depends upon the inlaws

May go to the PX...FIL is retired military with full PX and Commisary benefits.

6. Hi KitchenWitch!

Yes, if the Santa Anas are blowing, as they are now, it will be warm in the daytime.....anything from the 70's up into the 90's.

At night during those conditions, the temps could fall into the 50's.

Probably it would be wisest to call just before coming and find out what is going on!


Won't we have some fun? I hope so......


:loveya:

8. Read the book TORTILLA CURTAIN by TC Boyle

The climax takes place around Thanksgiving in LA.

It's probably the most true to life book about SoCal.

10. That was a great book!

Good recommendation to read it :-).

Bring 20$ in the event that you might need warmer clothes.

[KitchenWitch]

13. LOL

No one wants to see me in a bikini these days...too many scars.

[PROMETHEUS UNBOUND]

14. Warm

[KitchenWitch]

15. Thank you and welcome to DU

My inlaws live out there, and Thanksgiving is about the only time of year I have not been out there.

[PROMETHEUS UNBOUND]

How long will you stay on your visit?

[KitchenWitch]

17. 7 nights
