Cloudy and a bit chilly this Monday evening on California’s north coast, dark and overcast all day, though, some faded-weak sunshine appeared later in the afternoon, and more sun forecast for tomorrow — decent rain storm scheduled to start on Friday, supposedly lasting…

Faded-yellow sunshine — a surprise — this late-afternoon Tuesday on California’s north coast, as we were expecting some rain, though, there was a drizzle much earlier, the skies have been fairly dry. Big storm, however, expected starting tomorrow — check out the NWS dramatic forecast: ‘Gale force…
(Illustration found here). Oft quoted nowadays — though, a good description of the T-Rump world, or just about any random Republican operating anywhere — the somber warning of Ben Obi-Wan Kenobi from long, long ago, and far, far away: ‘“Mos Eisley spaceport: You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. We…
Foggy and growing darkly-gray this early-evening Monday on California’s north coast, cool as opposed to great heat found a couple of miles inland. Local, local, local — an old news story of interest, tapping into a report today on T-Rump-state TV (NBC News): ‘“More great economic news on Friday,” former pro-Trump cable news commentator Kayleigh…
Fog classified as ‘Patchy Drizzle‘ this early-evening Monday on California’s north coast — a gray-chilly Memorial Day. There’d been some way-faded sunshine on occasion in the afternoon, but mostly light wetness… Tone of Memorial Day in the nowadays — (via the Washington Post) this afternoon: In Trump’s White House, aides serve a president who demands…
Gusty winds this afternoon, but still gorgeous outside — went for a doggie walk and it was way-pleasant. Not so the on-going Mike Flynn saga, a terrible tale of a terrible time in American history, and even pretty-damaging testimony during a Senate Judiciary Committee panel won’t jolt the T-Rump out of the White House. In…
Low-clouds and light, misty rain this late-afternoon Tuesday on California’s north coast — a fairly-decent storm forecast for later tonight, and continuing through tomorrow. Good news off the wet is supposedly starting Thursday, a start to more-than-a-week’s-worth of dry, sunshine-filled days. A scenario long overdue… Also long overdue is some kind of fairly-decent investigation into…
Clear and bright this early Friday on California’s north coast — sunshine and cold temperatures, down to freezing before sunup. Accordingly, we should remain in similar conditions until Tuesday, or maybe not. Weathering unpredictably is a vital key nowadays — going beyond the horrid dumpster-fire of T-Rump’s shenanigans, new marijuana research indicates the weed needs…
Clear and sunshine this early Thursday on California’s north coast as we catch a break from the wet weather — supposedly ‘Mostly Sunny‘ through early next week. Surreal is a tip-top word to continue into 2017 — freakish, near-illusory fright of T-Rump’s press conference yesterday makes ‘surreal’ essential to understand this bizarre scene of an example…
Sunshine this Monday morning on California’s north coast, with decent weather due for the next couple of days — a big rainstorm slated for mid-week. Enviro story for the shoreline is the high ocean tides — according to the NWS, a ‘perigean spring tide‘ will be on tap this week, so watch it. Non-enviro is…
