Warming World: ‘The Big Kahuna’ of Climate

Overcast with some light, misty-drizzle this Friday morning on California’s north coast — we await another big rainstorm supposedly starting this afternoon and lasting into tomorrow, or maybe-seemingly forever. Despite the forecast, we won’t get the blunt end of a fairly-powerful ‘atmospheric river‘ drenching SoCal also this morning — ‘“…likely the strongest within the last six…

‘Bathtub’ Reservoirs

Sprinkling-drizzle this mid-morning Thursday on California’s north coast, made wetter by some gusty winds — the NWS weather-thingy recorded gusts up to  41-mph before sunrise. After a somewhat-calm period earlier, seems the winds are kicking back in — a decent sized storm due tomorrow. Once again, California’s top story is still weather related, but a contrary…

‘Mechanism’ of Weather — Mankind

Early Monday on California’s north coast finds our little space overshadowed by overcast skies, sprinkled with occasional splashes of faded-yellow sunlight – today the last hurrah for shine as we’re forecast for more rain for at least the next 10 days. However, not starting supposedly until tomorrow afternoon, so to enjoy our weather… Unless, of…

‘Steering’ by ‘Mother Nature’ — Rain!

Rain fairly-heavy at times this early Friday on California’s north coast, though, sunshine is predicted for tomorrow. Hurrah! Yet to be short-lived — just sunny Saturday and Sunday, rain coming back in earnest by Tuesday. And as for Monday? Apparently, up for grabs weather-wise. A heavy-rain season this year, one we were supposed to get…

Rain on Time

Drizzling rain and gray this Wednesday morning on California’s north coast — the cruising front of another ‘atmospheric river’ pounding its way northward. The NWS reports maybe three-to-five-inches of rain across the Lost Coast today, tonight and early into Thursday. Next glimpse of sparkling-sunshine hopefully-supposedly forecast for Saturday. Until then… Not only does long bouts of…

Rain Ruse

Misty-drizzle this Tuesday morning on California’s north coast, the tail-end of one storm, blended with the creeping-arrival of another. Supposedly, another wet front will be cruising onto the shoreline up here this evening and tonight, with rain forecast at least through the weekend. Earlier, I thought maybe it was dry enough to quickly-walk to Safeway…

Got Them Old ‘Groundhog’ Blues Again…

Rain and more rain this Friday morning on California’s north coast, and from all indications, this scenario will persist through the end of next week. Winds were gusting pretty-good during the night, but have way-calmed since daybreak, and it’s warm, which is a plus factor. Although we really do need the water, this rainy season…

Rain Again, Again

Gray-overcast and chilly this Tuesday morning on California’s north coast — sunshine now only a memory, tucked-away, never to return for most-likely a good-week or more. Damp ground fog earlier, but mostly already burned-off, leaving a wisp of moist in the air. Supposedly, a good-sized storm due in tomorrow evening, and could dump a semi-load…
