Low-overcast merging with some ground fog this early Sunday on California’s north coast, but feels a bit warmer, most-likely a 20-percent chance of rain this evening the reason — most of the time, wet weather means warmer weather…usually. The NWS forecasts the same rain percentage until Wednesday, descending to a ‘slight chance of showers‘ through…
Ground fog and damp this way-too-early Saturday on California’s north coast — seemingly the most-dead time zone of all, that period of deep quiet and isolation marking a weekend’s pre-dawn hours. Everybody else most-likely asleep, like normal folks. In the wake of a federal appeals court ruling last week the NSA’s mass collection of phone…
Sunshine clear and bright this afternoon, the sparkle tempered by a brisk, gust-filled wind — par the course. Breeze carries a sharp chill, but was way-pleasant this morning during a walk to Safeway — once the winds come up, the relaxed tempo-flavor of outside activity fades, unless you have yourself a good wind break. Once…
Sunrise arriving with a light-white haze in the east this Friday, and most-likely another bright, mostly-windy episode here on California’s north coast. Although neither the NWS or WunderBlog forecast any gusty-wind, yesterday was strong on bluster — some gusts rattled the vents. Speaking (or writing, as in this case) of venting, came across this story…
Terror toss to the good today — maybe/maybe not have a positive effect in this era of multi-media surveillance, especially through phones, and fright. Via The Hill: ‘A federal court has decided that the National Security Agency’s bulk, warrantless collection of millions of Americans’ phone records is illegal.’ And, ‘“exceeds the scope of what Congress…
Already a blustery wind a-blowing on California’s north coast, and bright, glaring sunshine — just returned from a run (totally a walk) to Safeway, and by the time I got back, my cheeks was stinging from the chilled, whipping breeze. However, I’ll take tingling cheeks over shaking ground any time, anyplace, especially right here. Earlier…
First-faint light in the east this early Thursday on California’s north coast, and at this particular moment, the skies are clear — this close to the Pacific shoreline, clouds and fog are most-likely already forming, but right now sunrise could arrive with a bright thunder. Now about half-way through my Yerba mate, which followed a…
Bright sunshine and gusty wind this afternoon on California’s north coast — skies clear as a chilled-bell with that breeze pretty-blustery at times. Shoreline weather ’round these parts is mostly one of two types — overcast/fog, or cloudless with a bite-to-it wind. Local weather conditions usually lead most of my posts, which comes from just…
A near-ethereal sunrise this early Wednesday, at least as witnessed from my little back patio, situated not far from California’s north coast, — sky to the east hazy, but above and roundabout seemingly clear as a bell. Maybe rain forecast now for Saturday night, but till then, according to the NWS, continuing ‘mostly sunny,’ which…
Bright and windy this afternoon on California’s north coast, sunshine filtered by some high, thin clouds — nice and comfy with a wind break, otherwise, a sharp, chilled breeze will briskly-batter the brains. Based upon the supposition, of course, you have brains, and if you don’t… who’s got sense enough to tell? Even with just…
