Walking in San Francisco
San Francisco is comfortable for walks most of the year; the score mainly moves with summer heat and rain. Flat-faced breeds, puppies and older dogs feel heat first.
How the score works
We start at 100 and take points off for heat, cold, rain, wind and strong UV. Big dogs lose more points in the heat, small dogs in the cold. Pavement temperature is our estimate from air temperature, sunshine and cloud. The seven-second test: if you cannot hold the back of your hand on the pavement for seven seconds, it is too hot for paws.
