Clear with some of those tiny-wisp of clouds high up this early Thursday on California’s north coast — a hot one yesterday, but according to the weather people, the peak of the heat has passed. Here on the normally placid shoreline, we hit near 85 degrees Wednesday afternoon, which for us is a “scorcher.” Things…
High wispy clouds and a full moon wide-eyed this early Wednesday on California’s north coast — and quiet, too. Maybe heat brings on noise discreetly, blocking sound from human ears — we’re forecast for 80-plus degrees today, the peak in a “heat wave” currently hanging over the West Coast. A bit further south, record temperatures…
Overcast and some ground fog this early Tuesday on California’s north coast — a day seemingly typical for the region of thick mist for awhile, then bright sunshine and warmth. Yesterday was the example — heavy fog at first light, then sun up real time! Weather is the final boney finger of climate change touching…
Overcast and warm this too-early Monday on California’s north coast as the weekend now becomes just another episode of history. Weather-wise, however, we’re in for some neat times this week — forecast to be in the low 70s today, upper 70s tomorrow and in the mid-80s by Wednesday, and clear as a bell. A bit…
Bright and clear, a bit on the chilly side, but still a most-suitable Sunday morning here on California’s north coast. And a high pressure hanging out over the Pacific will supposedly keep us in ‘most-suitable’ conditions through Wednesday — yet who knows? Not when involved in a tale told the wife of Reginald Hargreaves. Yesterday,…
Raining and warm this early Friday as we grind down another work week and ready ourselves for a couple days of no bullshit from ground level. In the ongoing spying- bullshit from way-up yonder, and a sigh of relief: In a 32-0 vote, the House Judiciary Committee passed the USA Freedom Act, a bill that…
Overcast and rainy-looking this way-way-too-early Thursday here on California’s north coast, and since I’m on foot nowadays, the wet doesn’t make me want to dance a jig. Rain is forecast for the next couple of days, so I’ll just have to abide with the dude. News shit sucks this morning — the same pattern to…
A bit overcast and quiet this early Wednesday on California’s north coast as we reach mid-week work style. There’s just way-too-many days between Monday and Friday. And speaking of ganja, especially up here in the pot-growing center of the entire universe, a bunch of well-respected economic brainiacs have called for the eternally-foolish, 40-year-old drug war to…
Thin overcast and chilly this early Tuesday on California’s north coast — another day in the life. And this morning, if you’re able to view it, the Eta Aquarids meteor shower will bombard the earth with debris off Halley’s Comet — meteoroids the pieces are called — with an estimated 1,000 ‘falling stars’ an hour…
Raining fairly-hard this arrived-way-too-fast Monday morning on California’s north coast. Seemingly, time freaked me Friday afternoon; home after work, and without even a hint of a whisper, I’m like ‘Right here and now!.’ Clocks mark the movement, but actual time is really, really subjective. The old adage, “Times flies when you’re having fun,” appears no…
