Overcast-gray with some layered ground fog this early Tuesday on California’s north coast — sprinkles/drizzle forecast for sometime this morning. In context of the coming new year, and a newly-minted/old word I’d never heard of until intrigued by a post a couple of weeks ago at Digby — the word, Kakistocracy, ‘…a term meaning a…
Sunshine and cold this early Monday on California’s north coast — supposedly, we did descend to freezing for awhile last night, but right now it’s heated-up into the mid-30s. Next rain is scheduled for sometime tomorrow — about 30-percent chance — and a warm spell slated for the end of the week, temperatures expected close…
Heavy rain gushing through gutters this Friday morning on California’s north coast — we’re in the wet midst of a fairly-decent storm cycle, all propelled by some blustery winds. We could see gusts above 20-mph, and although forecast for maybe half-an-inch of rain today, so far from the looks of it, the end-result should be…
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.…
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”…
Overcast with occasional sunshine this early Monday on California’s north coast, as more rain expected starting tonight. Even as the Electoral College does its shitty thing today, T-Rump and climate change don’t mix — especially with the midlands of the US now engulfed in a winter where temperatures are below -50°F at times. Warmth bringing…
Bright sunshine, but cold temperatures this Friday morning on California’s north coast — the heavy rainfall felt the last few days is supposedly over until at least next Tuesday. Clear and cold til then, though. Chilled as in a ‘Freeze Watch‘ starting tonight and on into Saturday — the NWS calls for temperatures in the…
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…
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…
Gray-overcast and cold this early Tuesday on California’s north coast as a ‘atmospheric river event‘ is supposedly coming later today. Seemingly, we’re living a nightmare-360 scenario — according to a new study, methane (CH4), a powerful greenhouse gas, a contributor to climate change (more potent greenhouse gas, trapping 28 times more heat than CO2), is…
