Since you are in a warm weather area 20-50 is fine. If the ambient temp gets below 60* I would think about a thinner oil 10-30 or 5-30(I use 0-30 in my race car during the early season). I would just make sure the oil has warmed up for a couple minutes before any hard driving. low oil temp can really be hard on engine bearings. keep using the oil grade you have been using and make sure the engine is at operating temp before any hard driving.
