Rain and rain this early Monday on California’s north coast as the first major storm of the season plops its way across the region — supposedly, we’re on the final shower this morning as one of those ‘atmospheric rivers (ARs)‘ has been washing us clean. Via the Times-Standard last night: “Right now we’re on the back…
Drizzling rain and gathering-darkly overcast this Thursday morning on California’s north coast, as we weather the first wet encounter/wave of a supposedly-terrific storm scheduled to collide with our coastline sometimes this evening or early Friday. According to the NWS, we’re forecast today to be ‘Heavy Rain and Breezy,’ but notches up a bit tonight to ‘Heavy…
Foggy-damp and chilly this early Tuesday afternoon on California’s north coast, with a supposedly strong storm bearing down on us — heavy rain forecast for close to a week starting Thursday. Or maybe tomorrow, who knows? Seeking a respite from the hourly-updated horror of the 2016 presidential race, we’ll take a look at another horror…
Bright-sunshine again this near-noon Friday on California’s north coast, supposedly we’re due for about the same the next few days. Meanwhile, way-to-the-east, the opposite in nature as Hurricane Matthew brutishly-swirls along the south Atlantic seaboard — sustained winds, 120 mph. Description of the complication of weather shit — Dr. Jeff Masters at WunderBlog this morning: ‘Matthew’s…
Sunshine’s glare this early Thursday on California’s north coast, and apparently we’re in for some nice weather for the next few days. As horrifying, massive Hurricane Matthew aims for Florida, climate change keeps blistering the world — in our neck of the woods, our biggest industry is not helping the environment recover. From TakePart yesterday: It…
Overcast this early Tuesday on California’s north coast, maybe some sunshine later. Last Friday, the state’s water year 2016 ended, and no surprise, drought continues. Via Sci-Tech Today on Monday: “If you had to put a one-word descriptor on this water year, it would be ‘dry,’” said Doug Carlson, a spokesman for the California Department of…
Sunshine shocker this early Friday on California’s north coast — overcast-gray just an hour ago, but at least for a little while we’re going to enjoy maybe the last of the sun for a few days. Rain expected pretty-much until near-about middle of next week, a big supposed big storm Sunday/Monday — the NWS says 50-percent…
Overcast with some low, patchy fog this early Wednesday on California’s north coast, and chilly, too. And on the weather agenda, maybe our first real rain for the season coming this weekend, with the NWS predicting ‘Rain Likely’ for Sunday and supposedly into the middle of next week. Yesterday, California nabbed the hottest spot in the…
Way-warm this Sunday afternoon on California’s north coast, with plenty of sunshine toasted slightly by a bit of ocean breeze. Near-about good-as-it-gets in these parts, and a lot warmer than I earlier figured — just a little while ago, took my daughter’s Corgi, Kuru, on a walk and actually felt sweat. Rare, and me, too,…
Overcast with an occasional glare of sunlight this early Thursday on California’s north coast, with most-likely the continuing scenario of near-clear skies this afternoon. We’ve a decent chance of rain tomorrow, but probably not… Today also kicks off the fall season — the Autumnal Equinox — and although we’re forecast for cooler temperatures than normal, the…
