Rainy and cold this mid-morning Thursday here in California’s Central Valley — a crank in the levers of the real-deadly horror of the T-Rump, supposedly in the middle of winter: Via the Guardian this morning: A run of record-breaking global temperatures has continued, even with a La Niña weather pattern cooling the tropical Pacific. The…
Bright sunshine tempered with chilled temperatures this late-afternoon Monday here in California’s Central Valley. If this is Monday, tomorrow is tomorrow no matter how you look at it. Of course, it will be Tuesday, and, of course, it will be election day in the US of A — an election like none other I’ve witnessed…
Bright, way-clear sunshine tempered by a chilly breeze this late afternoon Thursday in California’s Central Valley — finally a distinct autumn day.

Clear skies and on the coolish-side temperatures — comparatively speaking — here a bit after the noon hour Friday in California’s Central Valley as for the first time in a shitload of space we’re under 90 degrees as a high today, shaping up for finally a full onslaught of the fall season.

Although a bit warm for this late in September, still near-picture-perfect out-of-doors this late afternoon Friday here in California’s Central Valley.

Clear, bright, sunshine and way-pleasant temps this near-noon Friday here in California’s Central Valley — nicer here than the southern part of the state where wildfires and earthquakes are causing a shitstorm of anxiety. The shaking continues with a 3.4 magnitude quake near Malibu early this morning (yesterday a 4.7 in about the same spot)…
Clear and getting hotter this mid-day Saturday here in California’s Central Valley — we’re in the high 80s right now on our way to 102 later this afternoon. A ‘cool‘ space is forecast to start tomorrow and last maybe a week or so with high temperatures expected in the mid-90s (WTF! 90 degrees considered ‘cool‘).…
