Currently in San Francisco — July 31, 2024: More clouds Wednesday

The weather, currently.

High 60s and more fog and clouds on Wednesday, with the sun expected to come out later in the day over patches of the city. Winds will stay above 15mph. Overnight lows continue to hold steady in the mid-50s.

More fog ahead in August? Probably. Wouldn’t be SF summer without it. Goodbye, July!

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.
