War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Quiet with a deep, and low overcast this early Tuesday on California’s north coast — a situation which blocked us from the famous “blood moon” episode, seen just about everywhere else this morning. The total lunar eclipse supposedly painted the moon a coppery red, and everybody rejoiced — so says a Tweeter from Missouri: “It’s…
Overcast, rain and fog this early Thursday on California’s north coast as we wade through about a week’s worth of wet weather. People a bit south of us, down ‘Frisco way, are experiencing “a little bit of everything,” including thunderstorms and hail, with an even bigger system due tomorrow. Up here we get rain in…
Overcast with a chilly breeze this early Thursday on California’s north coast as we grind through another work week. Friday is just a flip-of-the-finger away. We had a bit of nasty news yesterday afternoon from just south of us, down in Mendocino County, where a sheriff’s deputy was shot and killed in a shootout with…
Clear and chilly again this early Wednesday on California’s north coast — mid-week weakly here. No earthquakes during my morning bath, but there’s been two little shakers since I got up earlier, and the movement continues. Fascinating life in the nowadays, huh? War in the Crimea, a big passenger jet still missing after nearly two…
High overcast and calm this early Friday on California’s north coast — the sky placid and easy. Weather around here the last few days has been incredible with tons of sunshine and warm breezes, spring has forecast its arrival — maybe. Meanwhile, back east in the DC shithole of government, a crisis is brewing on…
Clear and windy this Wednesday morning on California’s north coast — all seems quiet. Appearances, though — the ground is settled here, but a 5.1 earthquake was reported yesterday afternoon off the Oregon coast, about 250 miles from Coos Bay, and way out in the Pacific from my vantage point. Still, the shaker is near…
Drizzling rain and chilly this early Tuesday on California’s north coast with extra precipitation forecast for the rest of the day. Tomorrow and the rest of the week is expected to be rain-free, and maybe a bit warmer than the last couple of days. Are weather warnings/forecasts just another form of ‘“too cute by half“‘…
High overcast, quiet and dry this early Wednesday on California’s north coast, and the feel is not unpleasant. Soundless and near-weather-less here, but back in the US southeast, a possible “catastrophic event” via an enormous winter storm bearing down on the huddled masses — another episode of “global weirding” becoming more the ‘new normal’ in…
Thick ground fog blankets the northern California coast this early Wednesday, the second day in a row for such antics and yesterday I thought the deep mist would make the air warmer — wrong! Cold as shit yesterday, and the bite felt way-frigid mainly because of the unseasonably warm temperatures we’d had the previous week,…
Heavy ground fog this early Tuesday on California’s north coast, which in turn makes the moist air a little-bit warmer — meanwhile, on the eastern US seaboard today winter keeps on keeping on with storms to drop near a foot of snow. In all the shit going-down nowadays, this a really-good, feel-good story: “I went over…
