Depends on personality, but compare it to other climates where for parts of the year you can't comfortably go outside. Northeast you get snowed in regularly, 40 straight days of darkness and rain in northwest, 90+ days of 100 (ish) degree weather here in Austin.

Probably grass is always greener type thing.

I prefer to divide climates into two categories.

1. Places where during certain times of year, sitting on a bench for a few hours will cause you to die from exposure to the elements.

2. Other places where you can sit on a bench all day on any day of the year and walk away from it.

The Bay area is definitely in category 2 and that is a nice thing.

Yeah, this is my definition of good weather: I want to be able to go ride my bike outside without being cold and miserable (wet!) or uncomfortably hot. Even the best of clothes only go so far with the former and there's not much you can do about the latter besides drink a lot of water.
