I've been to the central California coast in late summer and mid fall. I'm not 100% certain but I don't think there are drastic temperature changes throughout the year.

This region of California is just gorgeous! Enjoy your stay and get out and explore. Try to do the 17 Mile Drive thru Pebble Beach. Don't miss the Monterey and Carmel coast, especially Point Lobos...walks have absolutely AMAZING scenery.
