Editing Templeton, California (section)

===Climate===
Templeton has a [[Mediterranean climate]] that is characterized by mild winters and dry summers. The area usually has low humidity. Rain generally falls only between November and March, with the rainy season tapering off almost completely by the end of April. Temperature lows can reach from {{convert|20|to|25|F|C}} in the winter, and highs can reach {{Convert|100|F|C}} in the summer, with the highest recorded temperature being {{convert|115|°F|°C}}.

Like much of the nearby area, Templeton occasionally receives significant but temporary [[fog]] through parts of the year. In summer, Templeton will occasionally receive fog due to its proximity with the [[California Coastal Range]], [[Pacific Ocean]], and the higher valley temperatures of Templeton itself; the differential in density between the warm rising air in the valley causes it to be displaced with the descent of the cooler marine air layer via the Templeton Gap in the [[Santa Lucia Range]]. Similarly, in winter, Templeton will occasionally receive morning fog due to the temperature differential with the Central Valley.
