Some faded sunshine this Friday afternoon on California’s north coast and a cool, wispy wind, too, as forest fires rage to the east and south of us.. After a dense marine layer hanging right on the shoreline earlier, the sea breeze pushed the heat away, but still way-pleasant here. No so in the hot interior.–…
Faded sunshine and way-cooler this Thursday afternoon on California’s north coast as the ‘heat wave’ for our shoreline has gone in a huff of mostly clouds motivated by a crisp breeze. Still hot via the interior, however, running the temp-gauge into triple digits. In the crank of observation, Californians are not only getting more concerned…
Bright and warm this Wednesday morning on California’s north coast as the ‘heat wave’ continues — according to a ‘Hazardous Weather Outlook‘ from the NWS: ‘Some areas may reach well into the 80s.’ Sarcasm — not! Especially if just a mile or so eastward, and ‘warm‘ becomes ‘hot as shit.’ And furthermore, such from a…
John McCain in Dayton, Ohio, Aug. 29, 2008: ‘“She’s not — she’s not from these parts and she’s not from Washington. But when you get to know her, you’re going to be as impressed as I am.”‘ Incredibly-famous last words. Flash seven years forward into a pure-crazed, rapid-bubbling GOP 2016 presidential race comes again Sarah…
In the heat of this Tuesday afternoon, I feel like tossing out to the poor folks right now, “…a bitter gibe or taunt,” just to lighten up the mob — and reveal my vast intelligence. Via sarcasm — from the Harvard Gazette: But new research by Francesca Gino of Harvard Business School, Adam Galinsky, the Vikram…
Nearly clear-as-a-bell with some bright sunshine this Tuesday afternoon on California’s north coast, and although forecasters claim we could see temperatures in the low 80s today, a shoreline breeze will most-likely keep the real sweaty-heat away. Yet beach-side is still warm (via NWS Facebook page): ‘74 degrees at WFO Eureka at 12:05 PM. That is…
Yesterday a rocking unusual — a shaker way-too-close to the barn. Just 16 miles away from me, myself and I was a 3.0 earthquake, and though no damage or much movement detected, my fright level was after-the-fact off the charts. Details at the USGS. And to increase the shaker-paranoia, check out the latest quakes all over…
Sunshine just a little while ago, now coastal fog has replaced the upswing brightness this Monday morning here on California’s north coast, and like a mental patient with mood swings, the shoreline weather is all over the place. And hot, too. Reportedly, this is to be one hot week, especially of course, for the interior,…
Bright and sunny this Saturday afternoon on California’s north coast as we continue onward through the weekend. And on through the summer — supposedly California’s forest-fire season. The burning started earlier this year, if it really stopped at all during the winter, and also continues onward, with 3,600 fires statewide in 2015, ‘almost 1,300 more…
Bright sunshine and warm this Friday on California’s north coast, and we’re facing similar weather conditions for the foreseen future. No rain for a long spell… Apparently, the ‘wasting disease‘ for sea stars (star fish) continues (Jana Hennessy, a master’s student at HSU): ‘“I know our local beach-goers and tide-poolers have noticed the decline in…
