Best Answer

It is generally colder and damper in the north, which leads to more rain. Anything north of SF has quite a lot of precipitation. The bay area does not get too much rain. In fact San Jose only gets 15.03 inches of rain (around the same as LA). Most of the reason why top half of norcal gets more rain is probobly because of the jet stream and the cool California ocean current
