The fog isn't burning off today. That's the clearest thing to know about San Francisco this morning, and it shapes everything that follows.
The signal here is the temperature spread across the Bay Area, and it's significant. Coastal zones are sitting in the low to mid sixties.
For fog clearance, the short answer is: don't count on it. The combination of steady onshore flow and a well-established marine stratus layer is a resistant system.
The wind is the other factor worth tracking. Ten to twenty miles per hour onshore is enough to matter if you're on the water, near the waterfront, or planning anything wind-sensitive today.
The practical takeaway is straightforward. If you're staying in the city, dress for the high fifties to low sixties and treat the sun as a bonus if it appears, not a guarantee.
