Sunny and warm a few minutes after the noon hour this Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley — summer falling into autumn nice and easy. So far, anyway. In doomscrolling the news this morning, I became a bit worried about some bits of really-insane polling for the 2024 presidential race — despite the absolute terror…
Sunny and mild this near-noon Thursday here in California’s Central Valley — and considering it’s still summer, use of the descriptive word ‘mild,’ is weather-wise saying a lot. As for instance, Hurricane Idalia’s cruise through Florida and onto into Georgia and the Carolinas — although a massive hit, circumstances proved to be a ‘dodged-a-bullet’ scenario…
Nice and sunny this late afternoon Friday here in California’s Central Valley — weather-wise a most-pleasant way to end the work week. Unpleasant, however, is this ugly, nefarious mug that has washed across the InterWebs today: (Image found here.) In US history there’s never been a president like the T-Rump’s time in office, and there’s…
Hot and still this near-noon Thursday here in California’s Central Valley, and once again bright, glaring sunshine to melt the air before it even touches your skin — a bit overboard, but close enough. Across the InterWebs this morning plenty of recaps on the Republican presidential debate last night — I didn’t watch, and I…
Hot and even more hot this noonish nour Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley — outside the air is heavy and feels like you’ve just stepped into some kind of odd, surreal oil painting. Art of the weather. A most delectable fable tale seen this morning: And of that conflict between reality and the bubble…
Once again — like a broken record it seems — it’s hotter-than-shit this noon Sunday here in California’s Central Valley. And once again, too, we join a huge chunk of the rest of humanity. The earth is boiling in record temperatures from America’s sea-to-shining-sea and all across Europe, Asa, and beyond — the whole, entire…
Misintentions turning into a hoax upset the InterWebs yesterday and suckered me this morning. Off this tweet: In my context, during my early news scroll routine this morning, I came across the tweet at Balloon Juice supposedly depicting Mike Pence getting hit in the head with a water balloon — wonderful, and such a scene…
Hot-as-shit just past noon-time Thursday here in California’s Central Valley — although we could be just above 100 -degrees for our high today, we’re in tune with a way-goodly portion of our earth right now. We’re looking at 110-plus for the weekend. Even across this country, heat is mixing the weather really badly. America (per…
Bright sunshine and warm this late-afternoon Monday here in California’s Central Valley — this most likely our last day for a long while with somewhat cooler temperatures (at least in the morning), Tomorrow the reckoning begins with the heat expected to be quick, day-by-day turned up to reach 110 degrees by Saturday. We’ll be getting…
Hot and getting hotter this noon Saturday in California’s Central Valley — we’re right now at 97-degrees with a wide-open, bright sunshine-filled afternoon ahead to reportedly maybe top out at 107 before the sun sets. Despite trying hard, I didn’t get put out early enough this morning to take a long walk (as normal) with…
