Sonoma County is big enough to have several climates, and paint wears differently in each one. In the south, Petaluma and Cotati sit in the path of the Petaluma Gap, where fog and steady wind come through most summer days. The middle of the county, around Santa Rosa, Rohnert Park and Windsor, gets warm, dry summers and holds a little of everything, from older neighborhoods to brand-new homes. Out west, Sebastopol stays shaded and damp under its trees. Sonoma, in its own valley, runs hot in summer and is full of historic buildings. Up north, Healdsburg and Cloverdale see the strongest sun.
