Winter mornings can run cold this far from the coast, though hard freezes are unusual. Leaks tend to show up once the rain starts in November, usually from a crown crack or flashing gone bad. The Sayre Fire of 2008 burned next door in Sylmar.
Same Drive
Sylmar sit on the same stretch of road, so a visit there often shares the day with San Fernando.
