Sharp, clean sunshine this early Tuesday on California’s north coast, way-chilly, though. As a former newspaper writer-person, reporting on T-Rump and his off-vibrates has got to be weird as shit — for the first-time ever in public discourse, lying is the new reality. Journalism has a challenge — CNN‘s Christiane Amanpour nailed the bottom-line in…
Sunshine briefly, then a fog attack this early Friday on California’s north coast, and now an overcast gray with a chill to the air. Ironic, Orwellian-genre style: “If you want to hear the corporate spin, the carefully-crafted lies, and the media myths — the Democrats are holding their convention next week. But here, at our…
Damp gray air this near-noon Thursday on California’s north coast, and according to the precipitation-percentage thingy at WunderBlog, chance of rain is zero to well-under 10-percent the next week or so — here along the shoreline, a lot of gray in the mornings, though. Normal for the area. And getting more ‘NORMAL’ is marijuana —…
Overcast with low clouds mingled with some ground fog this Friday afternoon on California’s north coast — supposedly, a low pressure system will move through the area starting maybe later today, and lasting through Monday, carrying at best, ‘light‘ rain. Odd refection — science and black humor… Technology can be way-dangerous, even a killer in…
Overcast with an occasional flare of bright sunshine this Friday morning on California’s north coast, a little on the chilly side, but if current conditions persist for awhile, we’ll be nice and warm by noonish. A 50-percent chance rain later today and tonight, supposedly not much, though. Big storm with some decent moisture forecast for…
America’s longest war continues seemingly unabated — in southern Afghanistan, a “harrowing” situation: “On the map there is one green dot representing friendly forces stuck in the compound, and around it is a sea of red [representing hostile forces],” the official told Fox News. One American dead already… (Illustration found here). Apparently, the drama is even-more…
Faded sunshine and way-cooler this Thursday afternoon on California’s north coast as the ‘heat wave’ for our shoreline has gone in a huff of mostly clouds motivated by a crisp breeze. Still hot via the interior, however, running the temp-gauge into triple digits. In the crank of observation, Californians are not only getting more concerned…
In the wake of pyrotechnic Fourth of July celebrations this past weekend and the noted ‘exceptional’ peoples back-slapping we all seem to do on this particular holiday, there also should be a pause for reality. And real reality, not history figured full of ‘truthiness‘ and fitful fantasy. Time allowed the creation of a historical atmosphere…
Overcast with thick-gray clouds this early Tuesday on California’s north coast, supposedly another episode in a mundane weather routine — fog tainted with sunlight, rinse and repeat. However, I do so-prefer here than the three-digit temperatures found in the interior, away from these shoreline breezes. We’ll top in the mid-60s today most-likely. Seems little Eddie…
Overcast and chilly this afternoon here on California’s north coast — the fog was way-thick earlier, but now ever so often sunshine peeks through the mists, so all’s not too bad. What’s real bad is that oil spill down in Santa Barbara, and Dick Cheney. Seems The Dick figured wrong, right when it really counted…
