NorCal guys may weigh in, but I'd bet breathable, stockingfoot waders with your favorite sweatpants on underneath will keep you toasty. Add a paddling jacket and you'll be downright hot!

Got a cheap pair of waders if you’re interested

this jacket works well for mid-winter lobstering on the kayak here in SD. It would work up there as a good underliner.

Does a paddling jacket keep water out if you go in?

it's basically a wetsuit, water will penetrate but keep you warm.

Paddling jacket is most important on surf launch. If you take one over the bow, it prevents the ingress of salty brine into your waders. I usually put mine on, launch, then take it off because it's too hot to paddle in most of the time. Beats sitting in a captive puddle.
