Ground fog and warm air — nice early Thursday here on California’s north coast as we hustle our way toward the weekend — just a few more hours and it’s Friday! One item I’d seen earlier this week, but appeared to vanish from media sight was a big indicator of how our envirnoment is suffering,…
A bit of an overcast this dark and chilled Monday on California’s north coast as no matter how hard I tried, this is Monday again. Start of another work week, which although appears from this vantage point as long and torturous, but will seemingly pass like the quick-snap of slender, feminine fingers — Friday on…
Clear-as-a-bell and chilly this early Wednesday on California’s north coast with rain apparently gone for awhile — warmer temperatures and sunny skies are forecast for the next week or so. Although we had some strong winds and ugly, dark clouds yesterday, not much in bad weather action — not so for the Bay Area, where…
Overcast with a chilly wind this early Monday on California’s north coast — a winter-like weather system is bearing down on us with forecasts of pretty-heavy thunderstorms today and tomorrow. Sometimes spring doesn’t sprout all the way. And today, the infamous IPCC report on climate change is made public — way-bad news, but even worse…
Darkly-thick overcast skies this Saturday morning on California’s north coast — rain and more rain on the schedule for this weekend, and maybe to even next Wednesday.

Overcast and wet this way-early Friday on California’s north coast as we swing furiously into the weekend. No actual rain right now, but we’re supposedly in the midst of a series of storm systems.

People a bit south of us, down ‘Frisco way, are experiencing “a little bit of everything,” including thunderstorms and hail, with an even bigger system due tomorrow. Up here we get rain in…
Bright, bubbly and hot here this Sunday afternoon on California’s north coast — caps a gorgeous weekend as yesterday was much the same. In fact, in a rare instance for me in this region, I’m now weeding my little back-patio area in a T-shirt, which is a major thingy for an old-nerd’s skinny carcass. Right…
Overcast with a chilly breeze this early Thursday on California’s north coast as we grind through another work week. Friday is just a flip-of-the-finger away. We had a bit of nasty news yesterday afternoon from just south of us, down in Mendocino County, where a sheriff’s deputy was shot and killed in a shootout with…
Clear and a bit chilly this early Tuesday with a full moon nearly-bright as day. Beautiful sky filled with soft, twinkling stars, a picture of pre-dawn serenity — not!
