Yeah, I think that it would work well with just a base layer in that weather.

FWIW, I'm not really a fan of buying stuff online, trying it on and shipping back and forth 'til you get it right, but Rapha does make it easy. Shipping is free over $75 (the jacket is $70, so you can either pay $5 for shipping or throw in some $10 socks to get over the hump) and return shipping is free (they send a return label with the shipment, though you need to do a return request online and include the resulting printout to be sure it's credited properly). IOW, it's a pretty quick, reasonably convenient and essentially risk-free to see if the materials, fit & finish are in line with expectations.
