San Diego's seasons, indoors

Indoors, the season shapes how you use each room. San Diego's warmest month is August, at an average high of 82°F, and its coldest nights come in December, at an average low of 45.3°F.

Highs stay at 80°F or more from August to September: the months when west and south rooms need shade in the afternoon.

La Mesa, 7 miles away, has 57 days a year at 90°F or more, more than San Diego's 16.

Children’s rooms

Shutters have no cords. In Canada, corded window coverings have been regulated since May 1, 2021, and in the US the Consumer Product Safety Commission tells families to choose cordless window coverings.
