Overcast this early Wednesday on California’s north coast, once again the combo fog/cloud routine until probably later in the morning or until afternoon — supposedly considered as ‘windy‘ today, we’ve usually the wind, but rarely designated as such by the NWS. And wind also usually brings sunshine, which is good. Today is also the 45th…
Clear and chilly this early Thursday on California’s north coast — a light, moist vapor apparently seems to be thinly to the east, making an otherwise explosive sunrise a bit on the muted side, hazy and undefined. According to the weather folks, no rain on the horizon until the middle of next week, and pretty…
After a most-excellent soaking during the night, the rain has ceased and most of the clouds have fluttered eastward, as the early light this Tuesday comes to California’s north coast — hopefully, ‘mostly sunny’ for the rest of the day. I’ve some errands to run this morning, via two feet, and maybe the clouds will…
A thick, rolled cloud layer hangs to the east this early Friday on California’s north coast, dulling the light into a gray haze with a decent-chance of some sprinkles maybe to complete the picture. The NWS says ‘mostly sunny’ expected today, but we’ll wait and see. Meanwhile, out in America’s flat heartland, a picture with…
Hazy-bright sunshine the early Thursday on California’s north coast — supposedly more rain due tomorrow evening, and maybe on into the weekend. Mostly light drizzle expected, though, the NWS calling for a ‘slight chance’ of rain Friday night. No atmospheric river to be flowing forth. Apparently, the only thing flowing forth is warmth — figures…
Overcast with a bit of chilled drizzle this early Monday on California’s north coast as we await a decent-sized rain storm to come our way, probably crossing near the shoreline at this precise moment — maybe. The NWS expects ‘heavy rain‘ for today and tonight, culminating possibly with 1.5-inches of rain or more during that…
A few high clouds and a small bit of drifting ground fog this early Saturday on California’s north coast — a semi-clear sunrise, but this close to the Pacific Ocean’s windward ways could/will quickly alter that scenario (I betcha!) in just a short-space of awhile. Supposedly, a nice-sized rain system due sometimes maybe this evening,…
Clear and windy this afternoon on California’s north coast, another ruffled, pretty day here along the shoreline. Not-so attractive, though, is the outlook on a way-precious commodity, water. Our statewide drought not only continues unabated, but seems to have worsened, putting California’s water supply in a bad place. The newest snowpack survey reported water content…
Overcast-gloomy with lingering rain showers this early Tuesday on California’s north coast, which according to the NWS, will start to feel a drizzle-down this morning, with smooth, sunshine-sailing the rest of the week. So far into this new year, the weather up here has been pretty delightful — some days warm and clear. Wind makes…
Overcast and damp this early Friday on California’s north coast with a chance of some ‘drizzle‘ this morning, maybe even some ‘showers‘ this afternoon, but no real ‘rain‘ forecast until Monday. Predicting nature, though, even with way-nerd-like technology, is dicey at best. Especially with nature freaking out about the heat. Most-particularly, naturally frozen water reacts…
