Overcast and feeling like rain this early Thursday up here on California’s north coast, a sense hopefully that really does pan out — big wet weather set for tonight and on into the weekend. Forecasts indicate 3 to 5 inches of rain between now and Sunday with heavy snow in the mountains, and “…we should…
High overcast again this early Tuesday on California’s north coast, and as the planet spins into oblivion the dark lingers. And sunshine won’t change matters. In light of the EPA’s okay last Friday of the Keystone XL pipeline, was this prior to the report’s release from Jack Gerard, CEO of the American Petroleum Institute: “It’s…
High overcast again this still-dark early Sunday on California’s north coast, and most-likely will play out like the last week — clear with a chilly wind. One cup of espresso-blend coffee, and half-way through a Guayaki yerba mate, the morning news scouring sucks, not pleasingly at all. Mainly, just crash and fall. Not really a…
Clear-as-a-bell and cold this early Friday on California’s north coast, but we can taste the fruit-filling of the weekend already and take courage from it. President Obama’s suicidal boast this week: America has “…more oil produced at home than we buy from the rest of the world — the first time that’s happened in nearly 20…
Overcast with shimmering ground fog this early Thursday on California’s north coast — but no rain. Our latest storm front is history. And so is water — the San Francisco Chronicle: It is a bleak roadmap of the deepening crisis brought on by one of California’s worst droughts – a list of 17 communities and…
Misty-drizzly rain this afternoon on California’s north coast, though, actually it’s really just heavy moisture in the air — we’re forecast for maybe some real rain tonight and tomorrow, but it won’t much help shrinking water reservoirs. Since this particular ‘moisture plume‘ is coming out of the central Pacific, temperatures are up, and earlier today…
High overcast this early Monday on California’s parched northern coast, and after summer weather the last last few weeks, rain, precious wet rain, is expected this week — 60 percent chance tonight and tomorrow, and up to 90 percent by Thursday. We need it — and the nefarious workings of Republicans need it. Unable to…
Clear and a bit on the chilly side this early Monday on California’s north coast — a big chunk of the moon still lights the western sky, shimmering now out over the Pacific Ocean. And no rain in anybody’s sight. No moisture, no water — last Friday, dry shit hit the fan as Gov. Jerry…
A most-beautiful afternoon of warm sunshine and nearly-no wind — here on California’s north coast, a rare day when all you need is just a T-shirt, or at least for my old, skinny ass. We stand right now at a way-balmy 74 degrees, and the same is expected tomorrow. And so warm and nice, I’ve…
Another report signifying lack of an actual, deep-understanding of the swift-boat capabilities of climate change, in this instance, the Pine Island Glacier, largest single contributor to sea-level rise in Antarctica, is not-so-slowly melting away — today from Planet Earth: The work, published in Nature Climate Change, shows the glacier’s retreat may have begun an irreversible…
