Overcast skies highly-influenced by a persistent marine layer this Tuesday afternoon on California’s north coast — a hint of sunshine every-once-in-awhile, but mostly just a gray landscape. Internal perkiness, though, is easily swallowed as today is supposedly National Coffee Day, albeit I celebrate it on all days ending in ‘y.’ Add to the caffeinated observance…
Crystal-clear with way-bright sunshine and a chilly air this Monday morning on California’s north coast and the next few days are forecast for the same. Supposedly, temperatures should be warmer today, but a cool Pacific breeze will keep the lid on any heat. Our view of last night’s “blood moon”-lunar eclipse was extraordinary as predictions…
Sunshine burning-off the fog this Sunday morning on California’s north coast — clear sunrise earlier, but then a chilled-moist marine layer came cat-feeting ashore with thick vapor soup; now eastern skies are bright with sun, and today most-likely a repeat of yesterday as the fog bank melts away. Although the skies could get near-clear, the…
Sunshine, a few fluffy clouds and warm air here near-noon Friday, and the outlook for the weekend onward looks good, though, the rain forecast for next Wednesday has already evaporated, or whatever. Tears trembling down like rain in the news this morning, however, as John ‘The Boner‘ Boehner calls it quits: ‘“Last night I started thinking…
Bright with a warm breeze this Thursday afternoon here on California’s north coast — supposedly maybe some rain next Wednesday (about 50 percent’s worth), but until then, sunshine and a smooth sea breeze. Major surprise/shock this morning — a car I got just on Tuesday had a dead battery, and the situation is well beyond…
Bright sunshine and warm skies this noon Wednesday on California’s north coast, and with the first day of Autumn, a new season to worry about the weather. At least according to the NWS, the environment is supposed to be some-type ‘sunny’ through the coming weekend, a seemingly lapse before the weirdness of winter and the…
Thick, misty-fog this morning, but now well into Tuesday afternoon, faded sunshine is attempting to cut through the gloom, but seemingly having a hard time of it. Part-n-parcel this time of year for the shoreline, yet still sucks. An old guy now retired and surviving upon Social Security (formal name: Old Age Survivors Disability Insurance),…
Thick, misty fog this early Monday on California’s north coast and chilly, too, but as is expected, the wet marine layer should all burn off before mid-day. The NWS predicts a ‘slight chance‘ of rain on Friday, but most-likely won’t happen. A happenin’ thing, though, is marijuana’s new aid for our domesticated animals — apparently…
After months of ignorance, my first photo off my digital camera I purchased ten months ago — a standard, low-tech and supposedly simple Vivitar DVR 410, but apparently still beyond my grasp. In all the instructions and whatnot, nary a word on an ‘external memory card,’ which puts the plain in ‘simple.’ A friend of…
Last night, in a town hall meeting in New Hampshire, The Donald was faced by this statement-question off a guy from the audience (via NPR): ‘“We have a problem in this country. It’s called Muslims. We know our current president is one…”‘ The Donald hacked all around the question about Obama, stringing off into serious-sounding…
