War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Despite all my crying and gnashing of teeth last night, it’s Monday morning! Again! And again, cold and clear on California’s north coast with today finally, the deep-cold of the past week might start to end — we’re at about 26 degrees right now on the way to a forecast high of 50, and tonight…
One great wonder of nature is a clear, clean and cold sunrise — here this Sunday on California’s north coast light approached in a ever-expanding wave of bluish-white. And did I say, cold? Record low temperatures all over the area last night and this morning, and bringing all the assorted frigid conditions these percolating icebox-like…
Cold still this Saturday morning on California’s north coast, but there’s much sunshine, and, much observed roof ice. This is the ice, though, that pisses: A former Goldman Sachs trader was sentenced on Friday to nine months in prison for wire fraud by a judge who took sharp aim at both Goldman and the government,…
Gray, cold and wet this Friday afternoon on California’s north coast — the weather guy calls it a “light rain mist,” and although that’s true in actual respects, a 43-degree temperature and a chilled wind makes it seem much heavier, cold-heavier. And on occasion, the rain becomes not a mist anymore, real rain, pattering heavily…
Clear and cold this early Friday on California’s north coast with icy rain due sometime later today in a frigid start-up to the weekend. Cold here, cold everywhere, especially across Texas and most of the US Midwest — Dallas Home Depot Manager James McGilberry: “It’s almost like a Black Friday, but I guess we’ll call…
Cold and bright again this afternoon on California’s north coast, and freezing in the shade. Record lows around these parts last night/this morning. One elderly guy, who’s lived here since the early 1960s, told me his backyard just after sun-up was the coldest he “ever” seen it — covers a shitload of calendar days. How…
Clear and really, really cold this early Thursday on California’s north coast, and yesterday we had some record low temperatures, but still not as chilly as other parts of the Western US. For instance, Texas had one drastic weather swing: Wednesday’s official high in Dallas was 80. Thursday night brings freezing rain, sleet and a…
Cold and bright sunshine this mid-week afternoon on California’s north coast — and it’s supposed to really get cold around here tonight. Winter’s knocking hard, and I don’t want to let him in. Kicking in the news cycle this PM seems to be another ditty via Eddie Snowden — and it’s a nasty one: The Washington…
Clear and really-cold this early Wednesday here on California’s north coast with the air getting colder the closer to dawn. Away from the ocean and into the interior, temperatures could drop into the single digits, but even with us on the beach, it’s going to be a record-setting cold snap. However, since I leave for work…
Way-bright sunshine chilled with a northerly wind this afternoon here on California’s north coast, as we hunker down for a hard-cold snap the next couple of days, temperatures forecast to dip to freezing and below, most-likely a side-effect off that big storm churning up north. Winter Storm Cleon — a “helter-skelter storm” already dumping 30…
