Gray-overcast this early Wednesday on California’s north coast, an air of moisture and fog. The NWS, though, calls today, ‘Sunny,’ reacting to all the sunshine and nearly-clear skies slated for this afternoon — nice, too, with a ocean breeze. Not nice at all, and maybe creates a bit of nausea (via Politico): ‘New swing-state polls…
Bright sunshine this early Tuesday on California’s north coast — a glare after a gray-cloudy earlier start to the day. Warming-up this week as our interior should near triple-digits, but still cool and breezy for us at the shoreline — the days go on. Despite the ugly politics and mass murder, which dominates our news…
Faded-yellow sunshine this early Monday on California’s north coast, the summer’s short wet season gone for at least til the end of the week, or longer. Supposedly an increasingly-warm few days, too — maybe 70-degrees or better by Friday. In light of violent death, these mass-killers cloak inherent intent in all kinds of bullshit. Thought-provoker…
Slight drizzle this early Friday on California’s north coast, feels like it’s drizzling rain all over the world. State of the killing union — via Dallas Morning News this morning: As they stood on the corner, a Dallas police officer came up to them and held out his hand. “You want a sticker?” he asked. It…

Sunshine, near-clear skies and some gentle ocean breezes this Wednesday afternoon on California’s north coast — a thick-looking fog bank hangs seemingly just to the northwest, but we’re not gray-covered as of yet. Experienced some laptop/InterWeb problems earlier, but a new modem fixed it — I’ve had the same one for more than eight years…
Overcast-foggy this early Tuesday on California’s north coast — occasional faded-yellow sunshine blinds, but quickly fades into gray. Chance of rain maybe on Friday, but the summer moves along… Last night sounded like a war zone. Outside my window as I attempted sleep, the sound reminiscent of downtown Fallujah — small weapons fire meshed with…
Sunshine with a bit of cloud cover this Monday morning on California’s north coast, allowing a clear, bright-light every so often, a change from the recent gloomy, overcast of the last few days. The NWS did warn about fire hazards in the area, retrieving the old adage: ‘Avoid throwing out cigarette butts out the window while…
Fog-bound again this early Friday on California’s north coast — temporary if the recent past reflects the current future. Most-likely sunny and breezy in a coupe of hours. Climate-wise the past is killing the future (via Scientific American): ‘Climate change has claimed its first confirmed mammal extinction. The tiny Bramble Cay melomys (also known as…
Gray-overcast again this early Thursday on California’s north coast — sunshine supposedly later, but tempered with some expected gusty winds. Another day in the life… And ugly it can be — Donald Trump continues. A display of the overall repugnance of Republicans, this from Sen. Mike Lee of Utah: ‘“Hey look, Steve, I get it. You…
