Rain near-about continuously this Thursday afternoon on California’s north coast, with precipitation coming in all forms, from light, misty-drizzle to heavy, hard-banging droplets — all soak-you-quick nonetheless. As an old guy waiting for a brain fade, this is more excellent news for me on medical marijuana’s influence on some forms of dementia, as this recent…
Overcast with fairly-strong wind gusts this Tuesday afternoon on California’s north coast we we get set to launch into another round of storm fronts. The NWS calls for one-to-three-inches of rain with winds maybe gusting up to 45 mph here along the shoreline for later today. As a single parent of five kids — four…
In my own personal history, one of the weirdest, disconcerting moments for me was when I first glimpsed David Bowie’s, ‘Diamond Dogs‘ album in a record store — a freaked-intellectual stare of madness right out into the open air — times were feeling strange. The summer of 1974 was way-extraordinary for me, and although not…
Update/Add-on, interesting related thingy below Overcast with some wisps of sunshine this early Friday on California’s north coast as we finish the first week of a new year. The NWS this morning echoes the season: ‘Slight chance rain, then rain likely.’ Rinse, dry-off, and repeat… Nearly-plain as the weather — how does ‘intelligence‘ effect ‘sense‘ in…
Drizzling rain this noon Tuesday on California’s north coast as our now-normal ‘conveyor-belt’ storm fronts keeps the dull gray overcast drenched across the landscape. Winds are expected to get rowdy later on, the NWS issued a Wind Advisory this morning, calling for gusts at more than 50 mph sometime this evening, and of course, more…
Sunshine and seemingly a bit warmer this near-noon Monday on California’s north coast, as the latest storm appears gone for now — supposedly pretty-good weather this week, though, maybe some rain late-Tuesday/early Wednesday. In the brightness of the morning, and the pep-upper of them all — coffee! (via today’s Medical News Today): Caffeine is probably…
Clear and cold this Friday morning along California’s north coast, after a night of heavy rain, a bit of hammering hail, and a faded-yellow sunrise, looks like a nice weather-day ahead — shivery as shit, though. On this peculiar holiday, another sad, hypocritical example of human idiocy — via NPR: ‘Parents of children with severe…
In short-sweet intervals, bright sunshine this Wednesday morning on California’s north coast, a sharp happy-face in a sea of gloomy rainstorms. An oddity, too, sunshine while it’s raining — a meteorological phenomenon referred to as a ‘sunshower,’ such as rain from a storm miles away shifted by winds, or a single rain cloud that passes…
Happiness is a metaphorical-philosophical endeavor — George Carlin nailed it: ‘More than happy. I bet you say that one. You say to somebody. “Oh, I’d be more than happy to do that.” How can you be more than happy? To me it sounds like a dangerous mental condition. We had to put Dave in the…
Gloomy-dark overcast this Wednesday afternoon on California’s north coast as we’re in the midst of a fairly-decent rainstorm with some heavy precipitation due later this afternoon and tomorrow. Although the air doesn’t feel too bad right now, supposedly there’s windy weather a-coming — according to the NWS: ‘A strong cold front will bring gusty south…
