War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Rain and a gusty wind here on California’s north coast this Sunday morning — “unsettled weather” in that generalized-meteorologist kind of way — which is fairly-normal for certain seaside places. Wet, stormy-like conditions all over the West the next few days, especially up Seattle way. Meanwhile, far to the east and last night, was the…
Up until just about an hour ago, I was feeling good — the weekend with the sun shining and the air up here on California’s northern coastline warm and fuzzy. Until Greg Mitchell at The Nation reminded me that yesterday was the 11th anniversary of George Jr.’s horrifying stunt of “Mission Accomplished” jet landing on the…
Overcast with some ground fog this early Friday on California’s north coast, and still a bit on the warm side. Yesterday was another gorgeous outing — bright sunshine and way-‘hot’ temperatures, like maybe in the 70s. Whoa! And the weekend is near-about on us! Also falling fast upon us is the coming end of the…
Stars twinkling in a clear sky this early Thursday on California’s north coast with an unusually-strong breeze, too. A warm-like wind I might add. Although we’re not supposed to keep our high temperatures — we topped 85 degrees yesterday, a virtual heat wave for us — the weather is forecast to be pretty and calm…
Middle of the afternoon Wednesday and what a show: Sunshine, a warm wind and 84 degrees — a rare T-shit day for me. Heat is unusual up here — California’s north coast is usually like just about all those seaside places with fog and chilly temperatures most of the time, but on occasion, some real-honest-to-goodness…
Clear skies and a bit on the warm side this way-too-early Wednesday on California’s north coast — yesterday was about as good as it gets with sunshine, blue skies and heated air. Today we’re suppose to have the same with no rain expected until Sunday, but we won’t hold our breath on that prediction. And…
Clear and chilly this early Tuesday on California’s north coast — we’re set for clear skies the rest of this week with a ‘chance of rain’ on Sunday, which means maybe a ‘drizzle’ if anything. Although our weather can be ho-hum at times — a day in January can be mistaken for one in July…
Clear skies seen through wisps of ground fog the main feature this early Monday on California’s north coast as we start a brand-new work week. And all against our will — the weekend is just way-way-too short. Seemingly, from Friday afternoon to right now occurred with just a snap of the fingers, which should be…
Rainy and chilly this early Friday on California’s north coast — on the plus side, it’s Friday! Another work week bites the dust as we move further and further into 2014. Hard morning. A nasty bout of insomnia during the night, which eventually peeled away for a couple of hours sleep, but beyond my “normal”…
Overcast with a bit of drizzle this early Thursday on California’s north coast — and warmer than expected as yesterday afternoon and evening were pretty chilly adding to the wet air. We’re here now, though, that’s something. And something, too, was last night with no tsunami warnings from a 6.7 earthquake right off Canada’s Vancouver…
