War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Dark-gray with sometimes heavy rain this afternoon on California’s north coast — into the great wetness. An item I spotted earlier of a mega-rare, anywhere-near humorous story coming out of the nightmare war zone of the Middle East was this at International Business Times from Tuesday: An Egyptian man has reportedly delivered a financial blow to…
Way-windy with some light rain this early Thursday on California’s north coast, a hazy hint of light building in the east — waiting for a supposed whopper of a rainstorm, maybe allowing for up to two inches of rain across the area. According to the NWS right now, the forecast every day through Saturday is…
Overcast this afternoon on California’s north coast as we await a ‘significant rain event‘ later tonight or tomorrow by virtue of a large, heavy-duty storm which could drop maybe a foot of rain on us. Batten down the hatches! In a related climatic note, a recent study has revealed the American Pika rabbit/hare is disappearing…
Overcast and chilly this early Wednesday on California’s north coast — supposedly a break today from continuous rain the last few days, and tonight, maybe tomorrow, a big river-express storm should precipitate perpetually for a good while. Seemingly, planet earth has gone topsy-turvy with violence, even beyond a cruel norm — yesterday there were two fatal…
Drizzling rain this early Tuesday on California’s north coast — we’re supposed to catch a short break this afternoon and tomorrow before another river of rain is expected by Thursday and on through the weekend. Meanwhile, Boston had the heaviest one-week snowfall in its history, more than 40 inches — average for a whole winter, 47…
Steady rain this early Monday on California’s north coast — been banging hard since the wee hours, and doesn’t seem to want to lessen up a bit. Although one forecast calls this morning ‘cooler‘ than yesterday, the air definitely feels warmer. Both US coasts are about to get weather-hammered — back east it’s an Arctic…
As the earth continues to warm, oceans especially, the higher temperatures create strange, sometimes horrible glitches in the system, the natural order of living is thrown out of whack — up here along Humboldt County’s shoreline, we’ve also seen the effects. Along with the “sea star wasting syndrome,” a disease attacking ‘star fish‘ in Pacific waters…
Overcast with a sense of rain in the air — early Sunday here on California’s north coast is quiet with just a hint of bright coming from the east, a narrow slice just below the clouds. Seemingly, rain is indeed in the forecast, though, only a ‘chance‘ today, and a bit more maybe tomorrow, but toward…
Sarah Palin has always been the poster-gal for bat-shit crazy, which lead obnoxiously to fame and reality TV, but her trademark aura of non compos mentis has finally lost its fruit flavor. Last week, via the Guardian: Sarah Palin’s eccentric speech to a Republican conference in Iowa last weekend, which has been criticised even by…
Thick, gray clouds, hanging low this early Friday on California’s north coast — and a bit on the cold side, too, with a slight, chilled breeze. Supposedly, though, we’re to receive heavy sunshine sometime today, and on into tomorrow, maybe rain by late Sunday. Weather forecasting, however, and like a lot of other assorted shit,…
