“The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco” is possibly the most famous quote about the City by the Bay. For years, to whom has the quote has been falsely attributed?

In a Mental Floss article titled "8 Things Mark Twain Didn't Really Say," it's noted that while Mark Twain never said this about the weather in San Francisco, he did have a few funny weather quotables, such as “Cold! If the thermometer had been an inch longer we'd all have frozen to death.”
