Currently in San Francisco — July 22, 2024: Sunny Monday

The weather, currently.

There’s a beautiful day in store for San Franciscans on Monday with plenty of sun and some pleasant breezes, too. Daytime highs will reach around 70, and the evening low will stay in the mid-50s.

For what’s often called “No-Sky July,” this month is shaping up to be quite lovely and bright. Warm forecast all week; more on that tomorrow.

What you can do, currently.

A Media Matters analysis found that last year — the hottest calendar year on record — network coverage of climate actually declined in the US. What’s worse, just 12% of reports about climate change mentioned fossil fuels as the driving cause. The media still reported on extreme weather, but stopped short of making the climate connection.

Independent climate journalism like Currently is needed more than ever. And this year, with all of these weather warnings already underway, we’ll unfortunately have plenty of opportunities to do better.
