Darkly overcast to the east this Wednesday evening on California’s north coast, but sunshine still from over the ocean — near the end of another record-breaking day, as temperatures soared all over the area, triple digits inland, in the 80s along the shoreline. Little River Beach with the dogs was near-about-almost too hot… Off-weather question…
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…
Bright sunshine on a windy Wednesday evening here on California’s north coast. Another gorgeous day, with a morning dog-run to Little River Beach both way-enjoyable and warm, too. Apparently, similar forecast for the next few days… Illustration to the left, Pablo Picasso’s ‘The Weeping Woman [La Femme qui pleure]’ (found here), kind of, sort of…
Wet, windy and chilly this Monday evening on California’s north coast — supposedly sunshine forecast for tomorrow and then dry for the next week or so. On the shoreline, and the road to nowhere, only time will tell… Indeed we’re in an episode of the new Twilight Zone — complete lunacy, freak-show idiocy of the…
Bright and windy this early-evening Wednesday on California’s north coast — a simply-gorgeous day, and even with a chilled and sharp breeze, the Ma-‘e’l Dunes in Manila was still a good hike area earlier this afternoon for me and the dogs.. We trekked to the ocean with shifting sand in our faces (wore me out,…
First post at Compatible Creatures in 17 days, how time seems to fly. Frantic life we lead — an actual whimsy from Dictionary.com: Time passes quickly, as in It’s midnight already? Time flies when you’re having fun, or I guess it’s ten years since I last saw you — how time flies. This idiom was…
(Illustration: M.C Escher’s ‘Scholastica,’ found here). Near-clear and chilly this Saturday evening here on California’s north coast — mostly sunny today, though, some cloud coverage throughout, and on the dunes at Little River Beach, the scene was way-nice, and warm, too. The dunes make for a most-excellent wind break. Supposedly dry and sometimes-sunny until Wednesday,…
(Illustration found here). Sundown Wednesday here on California’s north coast, clear, dying-gray skies, touched along the westward edges with a little bright tinge, a sense of approaching dark. Chilly, though, as it’s been since about noon-time today when the icy-north wind arrived — earlier was easy warm, was hoping it would stay that way, but…
(Illustration: M.C. Escher’s ‘Tower of Babel,’ found here). Sunshine chilled by crispy-breezes this late-afternoon Sunday on California’s north coast, fully a gorgeous day, even despite a run-in earlier with some weather — walking the dogs on North Beach, still covered in bright sunlight, a big-ugly mass of dark, condensed water vapor appeared lumbering right for…
(Illustration: ‘Cannabis,’ by Michael Creese, found here). Faded-bright sky with chilly air this late-afternoon Tuesday on California’s north coast, a beautiful sunshine day, though, and Samoa Beach was again gorgeously tranquil. The NWS forecasts ‘Mostly Sunny‘ for tomorrow, but rain-showers expected for Thursday, and continuing onward for maybe a week. Right as I type this, the…
