Overcast awaiting some supposed-heavy rains this early Friday on California’s north coast — meanwhile, more than just idle chit-chat about the weather. From Slate yesterday: ‘As of Thursday morning, it appears that average temperatures across the Northern Hemisphere have breached the 2 degrees Celsius above “normal” mark for the first time in recorded history, and likely…
Sunshine this early Thursday on California’s north coast as we enjoy a bright spot prior to an expected heavy-storm period to drench us the next week-to-10-days. Rain-dense ‘atmospheric river‘ system forecast for tomorrow, and supposedly will continue for awhile — to be cold and windy, too. Also bright is the seemingly new-found interest in the…
Overcast and chilly this mid-morning Wednesday on California’s north coast as we saunter through our rainy season, part two. After a long respite, maybe the next 10 days or so some heavy-wet rainstorms. Reportedly, starting this afternoon, or sooner, as with the NWS for today: ‘Chance Rain, then Rain.’ This weekend, though, a strong front with…
In the black-comedy/traveling-horror show of the GOP, the actual set-piece of the production occurred last night. The vacuum idiot-stare of crazed ignorance tells the tale. (Illustration: Chris Christie’s lost look and Internet reaction found here). In first viewing, the clip from last night of The Donald’s victory pontification-gibberish appeared average for the asshole, same twisted…
Darkening skies and gusty winds this early Tuesday on California’s north coast, literally foreshadowing a decent-sized rainstorm headed our way — via the NWS: Steady rainfall will move onto the coast by late morning and spread inland during the afternoon, with some showers continuing into the evening. Rainfall totals of up to an inch will…
Overcast with a chilly breeze this early Monday on California’s north coast, the morning flavored with an occasional flash of faded sunshine. Pretty much the picture for the next couple of days with a big block of rain forecast to start on Friday and last a few days — in the meantime, small spurts of…
Overcast-gray this early Friday on California’s north coast as our latest storm front readies itself — some occasional pellets of rain, more like strong drizzle. with the heavy stuff not slated until later on in the afternoon. As pre-stated from the NWS forecast this morning, ‘Rain Likely then Rain,’ and so it goes… Apparently, our…
High, fleecy clouds with lots of yellowed sunshine this early Thursday on California’s north coast as we roll through another not-unpleasant portion of our cock-eyed winter season. Rain forecast for tomorrow afternoon, a quick squirt, and clear Saturday with another short drizzle/rain spell, then back to quiet and warm supposedly for next week. Nice out…
Overcast with some occasional sharp sunshine this early Wednesday on California’s north coast, with rain still expected for Friday — could be more than half-an-inch, but we’ll just have to wait and see, huh? In local ocean news, apparently a horrible ‘wasting disease‘ attacking sea stars (or, ‘star fish’) all along the Pacific coast, has…
Glaring sunshine this early Tuesday on California’s north coast as we chill through another break in the so-called ‘weather‘ — no rain expected until Friday afternoon. When I started this blog, ‘Compatible Creatures,’ nine years ago, my main topic was war — probably the vast majority of my post-topics reflected military mayhem waging in nearly…
