Lamenting the Deplorable

Slivers of faded-yellow sunshine this early Thursday on California’s north coast — big rainstorm due this afternoon, and will supposedly drench-over into all day tomorrow. Weather the system, but not the climate — an unpresidented gloom in the T-Rump atmosphere: It is about the candidate who was picked as president by the electoral college on Monday.…

Solstice of Winter’s Discontent

Crystal-clear with bright sunshine this early Wednesday on California’s north coast, and cold, too. Frosted rooftops in the neighborhood this morning as temps right now just a few degrees above freezing. No rain until sometime tomorrow afternoon, decent-sized storm expected, though.. Today is also the ‘Winter/December Solstice,’ which actually occurred at 2:44 AM, and “officially”…

Vlad the T-Rump Impaler

Overcast-gray this Thursday morning here on California’s north coast, a respite from the rainstorms sweeping the area this week. Sunshine maybe tomorrow… Peculiar and frightful the chart to the right, Republicans have gone insane — via HuffPost yesterday: Russian President Vladimir Putin’s net favorable rating among Republicans has climbed by an astonishing 56 percentage points since…

‘Atmospheric’ to the ‘Vortex’

Water, and more water from the sky this Wednesday morning on California’s north coast — the NWS calls it ‘Heavy Rain,’ and it has indeed been that for several hours now. Supposedly, another cycle right-behind this one, bringing more ‘Heavy Rain‘ until sometime tomorrow afternoon. Starting Friday, though, fair, sunshine days expected through the weekend, maybe…

T-Rump, Climate Change and ‘Nobody Really Knows’

Some sunshine this Sunday morning on California’s north coast, but mostly overcast.

I don’t believe it…I think it’s ridiculous.”‘ And on climate change happening and the EPA (Washington Post): ‘“I’m…

Twit-Ass T-Rump

Raining-darkly this Friday morning on California’s north coast. According forecasts, we should stay wet at least until Monday, and even then it’s still likely there’s going to be drizzle. Supposedly-maybe, near two-inches for the shoreline tonight and tomorrow, of course, higher amounts inland. Funny, how the word ‘weather‘ also means more than the environment —…

‘Global warming and “an extraordinary departure from the norm”’

Overcast this Wednesday morning on California’s north coast, with rain expected at any minute — supposedly rain until Saturday, at least, and some forecast to be fairly-decent in downfall. And cold-as-shit this morning, too. However, we on the shoreline are under an NWS ‘Frost Advisory,’ vs a few miles inland, and a ‘Freeze Warning.’ A degree-or-two…
