Climate Change Action: ‘Under Pressure’

Sunny and nice this Thursday evening here in California’s north coast — summer’s near-about two-thirds gone. A bit under-the-weather the past few days with a head cold of sorts, a condition which probably started late last week, but came to fruition over the weekend and made my life decently-miserable since Monday. I feel much better…

Global Warming: ‘Quite Phenomenal as a Statistic’

Sunshine and wind-blown late-afternoon Tuesday on California’s north coast. Another gorgeous day with the obligatory fog this morning — a dog run to Little River State Beach was also foggy, but way-enjoyable. (Discovered no dogs allowed at Little River, a never-before-noticed sign right at the entrance is way-obvious now, most-likely to continue, though). Right now…

‘At the Precipice of Excitation’ for Extinction

Off this frightening news: MIT geophysics professor Daniel Rothman released new data on Monday showing that carbon levels today could be fast approaching a tipping point threshold that could trigger extreme ocean acidification similar to the kind that contributed to the Permian–Triassic mass extinction that occurred about 250 million years ago.  … But the most significant…

Hotel California — Rock-n-Roll Version

Sprinkling sunshine this late-afternoon Monday here on California’s north coast, beyond some patchy-fog here-and-there, our daytime weather should supposedly stay this way for awhile. Although the NWS does forecast a 20-percent chance of showers tomorrow, we’re in summer mode along the coast, hence, no one really knows for sure the real shit. First dog run…

Deleted Climate Change Testimony: ‘Heavily Biased Toward Alarm’

Sunshine and hot this early-evening Tuesday here on California’s north coast, balmy it be — the NWS reports 82-degrees right now in Arcata, and will supposedly stay way-warm until dark. Although not really what you’d call ‘hot,’ but for us coast people, it’s ‘sweltering.’ Yesterday from the Northern California Weather Blog: A high pressure ridge…

Guardian: ‘Climate Emergency, Crisis or Breakdown’ Instead of Passive ‘Change’

Seemingly-white sunshine this Friday afternoon on California’s north coast, the brightness of the low-hanging clouds appears to bleach the air — warm, too. We did get some decent sun this morning, then on occasion, and now all-the-time all gray. We’re just in a slight respite from a couple of ‘rare‘ atmospheric rivers that’s swept the…

Barr Taunts Pelosi: ‘Bring Your Handcuffs?’ — GOP All Mini-Trumps Now

Cloudy with low fog and a drizzly-wet this Wednesday evening here on California’s north coast as we’re a-mist a time of rain, at least forecast for awhile. According to the NWS, all rain until Friday afternoon, ‘Then Mostly Sunny,’ but rain back Saturday, 90-percent, and on we go… Creepy-horror of the chaotic T-Rump an obvious…
