Rain and more rain made wet-worse by swirling wind — a set pattern this mid-morning Monday here in California’s Central Valley. The seemingly never-ending storms continue unabated and are part of our natural future days. Today and this week appear much the same: Details via NPR just shortly ago: Another powerful winter storm system is…
Faded sunshine and billowy clouds this Friday mid-morning in California’s Central Valley as we enjoy a respite from the rivers of rain that have plastered us the last few days. Reportedly, this is just a short stay as more heavy wet shit is due tonight and on into the weekend. As the bullshit continues in…
(Illustration found here.) Drizzling rain and cold this early-evening Monday here in California’s Central Valley as wet weather continues on into the new year — we set rainfall records on Friday and Saturday for my area and according to our NWS regional office more heavy rainfall is forecast for this week.

Thick, cold fog this late-afternoon Saturday here in California’s Central Valley — yet better off than a sizeable chuck of the US right now.

We should hold onto these fleeting good environmental episodes — as apparently not-nice shit is coming faster than we can…
As my last couple of posts tried to display, the upcoming midterms are most-incredibly-way-serious. However, not noted in importance in the upcoming election is climate change and the possible fate of humanity — nothing heavy. Along with the last-chance situation for American democracy, if the Republican hordes of election-and-climate-change denialists take power we’re really screwed…
Continuing nice autumn weather this late-afternoon Saturday here in California’s Central Valley — we’re having the best outdoorsy-days of the year lately and after last summer’s boiling temperatures, it’s a nice respite.
