Sunshine briefly this Wednesday morning here on California’s north coast — bright gaps in an otherwise rolling weather system churning northward, bringing mostly just heavier-than-drizzle precipitation. And continuing to weather the T-Rump age — already lost in transition. Philip D. Zelikow, a former director of the Miller Center of Public Affairs at the University of…
Rain and a chilled wind this early Tuesday on California’s north coast — supposedly, showers the rest of today. The UN reported Monday, 2016 will most-likely be the hottest year ever, third record as such in a row. Noted climate scientist Michael Mann of Penn State University (via the Guardian): “It is almost as if mother…
Overcast and chilly this early Monday on California’s north coast — rain supposedly starting this afternoon, with the NWS forecasting in their All-Caps fashion, ‘PERIODS OF INCLEMENT WEATHER‘ for the next couple of days, meaning the old rain-on-and-off routine for awhile. And some gusty winds, too… Speaking of ‘inclement weather,’ one week ago today appears as…
Sunshine and chilly this Sunday morning here on California’s north coast, supposedly no rain until tomorrow evening, and then a decent-sized system will splash through for a couple of days, carrying a cold-front, too. Tis the season… Attempting to seep beyond the T-Rump escapade, early Monday will trigger a lifetime event for me — I…
Hints at sunshine still eastward behind a broken-overcast sky this early Friday on California’s north coast — rain expected this afternoon, and through the weekend. Veterans Day, and an oddball Friday ‘federal holiday‘ in a country recovering from a most-likely fatal stroke. A few days before the election, the Guardian published a most-observant piece on…
Thick, wet marine layer blankets California’s north coast this early Thursday — supposedly, the fog will burn-off into a ‘Mostly Sunny‘ day. Hope springs eternal… Yet reality of T-Rump — slim-jim-shit-head Paul Ryan gleefully gushed about the future of our planet: Look, it’s not just the health care law that we can replace, because we…
Bright sunshine on California’s north coast, this horrid early Wednesday — the air is dark and vicious, though. Garrison Keillor nailed it this morning at the Washington Post: Mr. Trump was the cruelest candidate since George Wallace. How he won on fear and bile is for political pathologists to study. The country is already tired…
Bright sunshine this early Tuesday on California’s north coast — a great ambience-setter for Election Day 2016. And supposedly warm, too — yesterday was the hottest Nov. 7 on record in Eureka, topping 72-degrees, knocking down a nearly-20-year standing mark (Lost Coast Outpost). Even national weather will ‘keep the mood positive‘ at polling spots across…
Overcast and chilly this early Monday on California’s north coast, as the NWS forecasts ‘Mostly Sunny‘ for us today, which I hope becomes reality. Election Day tomorrow can supposedly be considered ‘Partly Sunny‘ for our region, and we can hope. Hopefully, too, T-Rump will be driven ‘completely‘ back down the sewer-hole from which he came, and…
Heavy-duty marine layer this dawn Friday on California’s north coast — the fog thick and wet, and eased about by a chilly breeze. Supposedly ‘Sunny‘ today, but right now the world is gothic gray. And fading to black — a mass-chunk of US people express fear and loathing for this election cycle (New York Times):…
