Once again, Argentina doesn’t cry: Something moronic and oafish comes our way, represents us on a literal world stage: After pausing for a couple photos, Trump is seen on video shaking Macri’s hand and then walking off stage. Macri tries to beckon him back, to no avail, and an aide is seen pursuing the confused…
Insult to injury sort of, climate change continues unabated — new report yesterday on greenhouse gases from the World Meteorological Organization Bad bottom line per Common Dreams: “The last time the Earth experienced a comparable concentration of CO2 was 3-5 million years ago, when the temperature was 2-3°C warmer and sea level was 10-20 meters…
Sunshine, and Whoa! Mid-morning Saturday finds this little stretch of the northern California coast sitting at 91.1-degrees, at least according to the WunderBlog‘s local weather thingy, and for us, that’s a-boiling. Or just weird: the NWS has us along the shoreline under a rare ‘Heat Advisory‘ until 7 PM today. The weather guys also suggested…
Overcast mingled with patchy ground fog this Tuesday morning on California’s north coast — short weather version, ‘AM Fog/PM Sun,’ reflects our normal in the face of extremes elsewhere.

Sunshine and warmth again this Tuesday afternoon on California’s north coast — we’re sitting near 70-degrees here close to 5 o’clock, forecast for the high-70s along the shoreline for tomorrow and Thursday.

A massive Antarctic iceberg, more…
Sunshine and brisk ocean breezes this late-afternoon Wednesday on California’s north coast — warm temperatures, though, if you find yourself with a wind-break. ‘Warm‘ being relative, of course. Record heat down south — from San Diego County this morning (LA Times): ‘“The desert has two seasons — hot and hotter,” said Mark Moede, a weather…
Warm and bright the late-afternoon Friday on California’s north coast, rain expected tomorrow and Sunday, clear again by the first of next week. Early summer… Weather-wise as opposed to the DC comedy-of-errors, the climate continues to weird-out, now close to home — the US Pacific shoreline under attack (via Climate Central last Tuesday): A new study…
Sunshine with increasing warmth this near-noon Wednesday on California’s north coast, the start to a stretch of good weather — we already topped 60-degrees today, and supposedly we could get into the low-70s by next week. According to WunderBlog‘s local-weather thingy, a low-chance of rain for at least the next 10 days, and mostly ‘Clear‘…
Bright sunshine with some huge, fluffy clouds this near-noon Monday on California’s north coast, and all tempered by a chilly ocean breeze.
