Atlantic Periphery
Although San Francisco is not located in the Atlantic Periphery, there are still several similarities between the two regions.
The Atlantic Periphery typically experiences cool to mild summers and cold, snowy winters. San Francisco is usually characterized with moist, cold winters and dry, cool summers. Snow is extremely rare in this city, but fog is more common. The Atlantic Ocean affects the temperature and precipitation of both these regions. Tourism is very popular in both regions, but for different reasons. The Atlantic Periphery is popular in the summer for hiking, camping, fishing, boating and other sports, while San Francisco is more popular for its landmarks, architecture, cultural diversity, and business economy.
