Bright sunshine this near-noon Thursday melding with only a wisp of wind, producing what could be called a ‘heat wave‘ for here on California’s north coast. However, inland just a short space and an actual ‘heat wave’ with temperatures in the triple digits — we’re reportedly at 72-degress right now. Although now retired nearly three years,…
Finally, a lifting of a tedious marine-layer this late afternoon Tuesday on California’s north coast, allowing some faded-yellow sunshine to drive away the gray. We continue our fog-bound trek to summer — officially, just over three weeks away. Although our environmental situation is fairly normal for the time, the world as a whole-wide ecosystem isn’t…
Rain and gusty wind this late Wednesday afternoon on California’s north coast as we continue with a wet-weather season that just don’t want to end. Reportedly, next decent break is maybe Saturday afternoon — all rain and wind until then. Indeed, this has been a water-water season — Gov. Jerry Brown last week declared the…
Occasional bright sunshine this mid-morning Tuesday on California’s north coast, though, most of the time, the tone is more faded yellow than sparkle. We’re forecast for some heavy weather the next two-three days, maybe later today chance of thunderstorms with hail. A cold, strong, upper-level storm system is expected to form-up in the northeastern Pacific by…
Bright sunshine here this late-afternoon Friday on California’s north coast — a seemingly humongous fog bank floats just westward of where I’m located, but it appears to stay out of range, so we keep the shine. So far — supposedly rain free until the middle of next week… The morning, the US Labor Dept. released…
Raining again this afternoon, and again, dark and gloomy. This morning for a spell was really nice — I was able to walk to-and-from Safeway, plus take my youngest daughter’s Borgi, Kuru, for a full-blown walk (not the ‘abbreviated’ ones we have to take during storms), leaving both of us happy. Now a return to…
Faded-yellow sunshine this mid-morning Wednesday on California’s north coast, as we feel a way-brief respite from continuous overcast skies, and of course, the rain and hail. Another system inbound for later this morning, or st least, by early afternoon — according to the NWS‘ radar image from a few minutes ago, most of the front appears…
Drizzling rain this early Friday on California’s north coast, buffed by a chilled-gusty wind — weather like this forecast until Tuesday, supposedly. Of course, the entire country was buffeted this morning with the inaugural of the T-Rump — a start line of the beginning in the worst kind of shitsville. Sad, depressing day, raining in…
Clear and bright this early Friday on California’s north coast — sunshine and cold temperatures, down to freezing before sunup. Accordingly, we should remain in similar conditions until Tuesday, or maybe not. Weathering unpredictably is a vital key nowadays — going beyond the horrid dumpster-fire of T-Rump’s shenanigans, new marijuana research indicates the weed needs…
Overcast-gray with some layered ground fog this early Tuesday on California’s north coast — sprinkles/drizzle forecast for sometime this morning. In context of the coming new year, and a newly-minted/old word I’d never heard of until intrigued by a post a couple of weeks ago at Digby — the word, Kakistocracy, ‘…a term meaning a…
