Rain on Time

Drizzling rain and gray this Wednesday morning on California’s north coast — the cruising front of another ‘atmospheric river’ pounding its way northward. The NWS reports maybe three-to-five-inches of rain across the Lost Coast today, tonight and early into Thursday. Next glimpse of sparkling-sunshine hopefully-supposedly forecast for Saturday. Until then… Not only does long bouts of…

Rain Ruse

Misty-drizzle this Tuesday morning on California’s north coast, the tail-end of one storm, blended with the creeping-arrival of another. Supposedly, another wet front will be cruising onto the shoreline up here this evening and tonight, with rain forecast at least through the weekend. Earlier, I thought maybe it was dry enough to quickly-walk to Safeway…

T-Rumped the Romance

In the last few weeks due to shit news home and abroad, I needed relief short of a lobotomy, and by chance came upon my own personal solution — romantic comedies, dumb stories about heartbreak, redemption and finding love at the end. Anything to circumvent the times, indulging in sappy, pulp fiction. Starting with “Maid…

Got Them Old ‘Groundhog’ Blues Again…

Rain and more rain this Friday morning on California’s north coast, and from all indications, this scenario will persist through the end of next week. Winds were gusting pretty-good during the night, but have way-calmed since daybreak, and it’s warm, which is a plus factor. Although we really do need the water, this rainy season…

13 Days Later: T-Rump as Unhinged-Hercules

Overcast with some occasional faded-yellow sunshine this Thursday afternoon on California’s north coast — we’re awaiting a week’s cycle of storms to roll-out across the region later today. According to the NWS, the first round starts tonight and ‘will linger‘ through Saturday; the second on Sunday, and the last in this latest series arrives supposedly…

Sit Up Straight While Weeping

Cloudy and chilly this Wednesday morning on California’s north coast, supposedly the last ‘dry’ day for more than a week — big storm due tonight. And for a shitload of Americans T-Rump is the storm of storms, creating a national form of ‘collective trauma‘ over the situation. Charles Figley, chair of the disaster mental health…

Rain Again, Again

Gray-overcast and chilly this Tuesday morning on California’s north coast — sunshine now only a memory, tucked-away, never to return for most-likely a good-week or more. Damp ground fog earlier, but mostly already burned-off, leaving a wisp of moist in the air. Supposedly, a good-sized storm due in tomorrow evening, and could dump a semi-load…

Geyser ‘Shaker

Unusually-large earthquake a little while ago about 35 miles south of Ukiah — according to the USGS, a 4.2 struck just after 11, though, no detailed reports in the media as yet. The quake was centered about a mile from The Geysers, located in the Mayacamas Mountains about 72 miles north of San Francisco. The…

Breeding the Lies

Bright sunshine this Friday morning on California’s north coast, another beautiful episode in a respite from a way-rainy season, a gorgeous weather sequence in place supposedly until Tuesday. Beyond the weather, our current public/political environment is overloaded with lying bullshit. Dunce-douche Rep. Lamar Smith of Texas, chair of the House Science Committee, last Monday pointed…
