The bay area weather over the weekend was balmy. No rain, let alone
ice or snow.

I've driven that road to the Mountain Winery, but only for concerts,
i.e. the traffic was very heavy so your speed was limited.

You can have Los Gatos, Saratoga, and the Santa Cruz mountains. The
roads are very dangerous. But the Mountain Winery is a great place to
hear a concert.
