War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Bright sunshine this near-noon Thursday melding with only a wisp of wind, producing what could be called a ‘heat wave‘ for here on California’s north coast. However, inland just a short space and an actual ‘heat wave’ with temperatures in the triple digits — we’re reportedly at 72-degress right now. Although now retired nearly three years,…
Sunshine and brisk ocean breezes this late-afternoon Wednesday on California’s north coast — warm temperatures, though, if you find yourself with a wind-break. ‘Warm‘ being relative, of course. Record heat down south — from San Diego County this morning (LA Times): ‘“The desert has two seasons — hot and hotter,” said Mark Moede, a weather…
First post in well-more than a week, the longest period in the 10-year history of Compatible Creatures — a literary gap of the times. A lifelong exertion of a writer absent. A variety of reasons — most-notable, a continuous, hugely-horrific news cycle, a way-downer, and beyond depressing, starving any mucked-up desire to write shit about…
Warm and bright the late-afternoon Friday on California’s north coast, rain expected tomorrow and Sunday, clear again by the first of next week. Early summer… Weather-wise as opposed to the DC comedy-of-errors, the climate continues to weird-out, now close to home — the US Pacific shoreline under attack (via Climate Central last Tuesday): A new study…
Weak, near-pathetic sunshine this early-evening Wednesday on California’s north coast, trying hard to break through the merging marine layer, and previewing a wet-cloudy future the next few days. According to the NWS, ‘unseasonably heavy rain‘ will spatter the region starting tonight and continuing through Monday — an out-of-season ‘Atmospheric River,’ This afternoon, however, the huge…
Faded-yellow sunshine finally scuttling the overcast here this late-afternoon Tuesday on California’s north coast — pale light it is, as supposedly rain starting tomorrow night and mostly-wet through the weekend. Dreary this morning, and seemingly the last few days, weeks, and for at least a month. Life and the news has become so tedious, the…
Windy and sunny this late-afternoon Friday on California’s north coast, drawing-down on another warm, gorgeous day. Early reports forecast maybe some rain for the end of next week, but right now a most-pleasant environment. T-Rump’s meltdown-yanking of the US out of the Paris climate accord was not the climate, or economics, or anything of logical-reason, but…
Sunny and cool this late-afternoon Thursday on California’s north coast — high, sparse clouds shining through a smooth, crisp ocean breeze makes life along the shoreline more-than fairly nice. Anti-nice and horrifying was the scene earlier today in the White House Rose Garden — the T-Rump announced he was pulling the US out of the…
