Chillin? my ride

Its been cold around here lately. For a California guy, that means it is somewhere between 40 to 50 degrees. When the temperature gets down this low I find I have to wear heavier gloves for riding. I don?t wear the open fingered ones during this time as that tends to be too cold on the fingers especially when travelling at the high 20+ mph speeds. When it gets even colder and drops below 40 then I put on my head sock as well to keep the wind from chilling my face. It seems that on the days it rains it is always warmer. Whats up with that? I prefer to remember riding along the path around the lake, in shorts, with clear sunny skies. Yes, like this picture shows from the summertime:
