Thick-clouds with on-and-off drizzle this early Wednesday on California’s north coast, though, the wet is supposed to drip off to nothing by this afternoon. Reportedly, not much chance of rain until early next week — nowadays weather is a wait-n-see thingy. Afterthought on the VP debate last night — another clown show, however the same.…
How can the GOP spin this — ‘Thanks, Obama!’ Via Quartz this morning: In 2015, the median household earned $56,500, adjusted for inflation, according to the US Census Bureau (pdf). In real terms, that’s equal to a $2,800 rise compared with 2014’s median household income—growth of more than 5 percent. That 5-percent jump is the…
Sunshine brightly this early Monday on California’s north coast as we head into a week of supposedly accelerating heat — even here on the shoreline we should be in the category of ‘hot‘ by Friday. Of course, our ‘hot‘ is ocean-breeze relative. On this Labor Day, a glance at our local laborers of budtenders, or…
Ashen-gray overcast this early Wednesday on California’s north coast with fog and cloud together again to produce a dreary-looking morning. Now retired nearly two years, I’ve joined a growing cadre of baby boomers without the finances for a ride into the sunset, or anywhere. We’re in a mob-pickle… (Illustration found here). Old age for me…
Sunshine and warm this early Tuesday afternoon on California’s north coast — supposedly the same the next couple of days, maybe rain by Friday. An odd incident earlier, and not very assuring either — my bank (once North Valley, now Tri-Counties) here in Mckinleyville, experienced some type exploding thingy. Apparently, the glitch widespread — via Lost…
Overcast and gray this Tuesday afternoon on California’s north coast as real-rain has given way to misty drizzle and sparse sprinkles — the big storm supposedly for today was quiet for us along the shoreline. Forecasters call for a slight-period of semi-dry until Thursday. In another type respite, yesterday I put $20 worth of gas…
‘Heavy rain‘ forecast for this early Friday on California’s north coast, and indeed, all morning on-and-off deluges –accordingly, we’ve already nearly two-inches in rainfall so far off this system. Nice to pluck weather information from the InterWebs — however, this week a shitload of local people, including some government agencies of Humboldt County, lost Internet…
Overcast, dark and chilly this Thursday morning on California’s north coast, a natural stage set for fairly-heavy rain due sometime this afternoon — according to the NWS, we could get more than half-an-inch before tomorrow. Supposedly, the rain-front is expected to be quiet through the weekend, with the next go around forecast for next Tuesday,…
Overcast with occasionally some faded-yellow sunlight peeking through this Thursday morning on California’s north coast, an environment corresponding to a ‘slight chance‘ of wetness forecast for today, with a supposedly true rainstorm slated for Sunday. Surreal image at the right is an enlightened Dick Cheney, of course, one of the greatest living villain-assholes of our…
Wet outside this Sunday morning on California’s north coast with rain becoming drizzle, then back to actual rain again — heaviest rainfall earlier in the dark, and now this particular storm-front appears fading away. And seemingly-maybe the season be upon us, more rain forecast for Tuesday night, or sooner. Weather-related: Another climate-change study — this…
