Overcast and gray this early Wednesday, and cool, too — temperature-wise. And the neat-cool is Hillary Clinton geared for the presidency. Problem in the woodpile is Bernie Sanders. Amy Davidson at The New Yorker this morning: Early in the speech, before he made his intentions entirely clear, Sanders said, “We will not allow Donald Trump to…
Gray skies and chilly air this early Tuesday on California’s north coast, a supposed-start to a cooling off period as a low pressure system is swirling down south of us, dipping temperatures. If in normal, routine conditions, the weather should get clear and windy for this afternoon. On this, the last, big presidential-primary day, with…
Fog-bound again this early Monday on California’s north coast as we work our way toward summer, with a certain cool apparently only allowed in our local environs. Triple-digit temperatures inland, and big heat southward, but all is good here. Tomorrow is the last hurrah for this insane presidential election cycle, especially with the Democratic contest,…
Gray fog quickly displaced sunshine this Friday morning on California’s north coast — bright sunrise, which vanished into the ‘normal‘ mists of a thick marine layer. The sun is expected later, but for now it’s all gray matter. Words for brains: Today is April Fool’s Day in an attempt to change gray to black. Last…
Clear-bright sunshine this Thursday morning on California’s north coast as we smooth through a way-nice weather spell — supposedly (and looks it!), we’re to get some way-warm temperatures today along with maybe some gentle breezes. Might be sort of ‘hot‘ this afternoon…in the realm of relatively speaking. Maybe parallel, too, or worse (via the BBC):…
Light drizzling rain this early Wednesday on California’s north coast as we hunker down for more ‘conveyor-belt’ action. According to the NWS this morning, three to six inches of rain could drench us heavily on-and-off until Saturday, creating flash flooding, especially with low-lying byways — poetic warning from our weather-service people: ‘It can be impossible…
Thinly-overcast with some faded sunshine this Tuesday afternoon on California’s north coast as we continue with some warmth, too. Not like yesterday, where we reached 80 degrees in my neighborhood about the noon hour, but still warm enough to have windows open to the air. All along the north coast temperature records were set on…
Clear sunshine and warm air this early Wednesday afternoon on California’s north coast as we continue an Indian Summer scenario — rain still strongly expected for Friday night and Saturday, but there’s still time. The initial Democrat debate whipped out last night in Las Vegas, and odds are, all involved came across as sane. And despite…
Clear and chilly this Tuesday morning on California’s north coast as the sun came up like a shock — after days of fog-shrouded early daylight, the outside looks weird. Nice, though. Forecast for rain this weekend — 75 percent chance right now, but in the course of the nowadays and the weather, we’ll just have…
Clear at sunrise, but now about an hour or so later this early Thursday on California’s north coast, there’s high-thinnish clouds filtering the shine, but clear skies scheduled for today, and supposedly warmer, too. According to forecasts, dry as a bone for the next week to 10 days — one word, ‘nice.’ Also on the…
