War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Sunshine this near-noon Thursday on California’s north coast, another day in the normal. Abnormal, however, is seemingly the worst adversary of America is not from without, but within. The world as it is — The Donald’s most-current bullshit (the Guardian this morning): ‘The origins of Isis trace back to the aftermath of the US invasion…
Overcast-gray this early Wednesday on California’s north coast — forecast calls for it to be cooler than yesterday, and right now the air feels it. Ground shakers-swarm yesterday down in Lake County — according to the USGS, a 5.1 earthquake near Upper Lake has apparently spawned at least four smaller quakes in its wake. Two…
Patchy fog this Monday morning on California’s north coast, yet on occasion, sunshine makes half-hearted attempts to slice through the gray, but mostly haphazard at best — might clear before noon maybe. Unless something weird occurs, we should end up with another pleasant day along the shoreline, and somewhat cooler temperatures inland, opposed to the…
Misty ground fog this early Wednesday on California’s north coast — a couple of hours ago, from all appearances, we were going to be treated to a lately-rare sunshine morning, with clear skies eastward, and the first, startling rays of sunlight topping the mountains. However, this tale has been told. Shoreline weather has a life…
Sunshine, near-clear skies and warm this Tuesday afternoon on California’s north coast — another in the summer series of wonderful shoreline days. Although the wind is expected to pick-up later, right now it’s gorgeous. Beyond the crazed world, and the even-more crazed US presidential election, new information on how long people have been getting stoned…
Monday morning here on California’s north coast, and once again a thick mat of gray outside as the routine-like marine layer continues to hold sway. Temperatures are supposed to cool, though Willow Creek is expected to top 90-degrees today — the interior stays hot, while we along the shoreline calendar-through another weather-pattern of fog-to-sunshine, which…
Damp-gray early Friday here on California’s north coast, seemingly the morning-norm nowadays, a way-contrast with recent afternoons of clear, bright skies and warm temperatures. Locally, however, the word, ‘warm,’ doesn’t at all necessarily mean ‘hot‘ — the NWS says we could top 70-degrees today, but I doubt it. Enjoy-ability (and chill factor) depends on the wind,…
Fog-city again this early Tuesday on California’s north coast, a repetition of repeating weather. Cool here, of course, but seemingly nowhere else. California and most of the US are engulfed in a horrific heat wave, festering wildfires — update this morning on the Santa Clarita fire near LA: ‘“It has averaged about 10,000 acres per day,”…
Gray and damp this Monday morning on California’s north coast, another day in the life. A bit of guilt even as we cool here on the Pacific shoreline, not far eastward temperatures way-climb, sometimes 20-30-degrees higher — meanwhile, across a big chunk of the US right now, the notorious “heat dome” is frying the citizenry, though,…
Sunshine briefly, then a fog attack this early Friday on California’s north coast, and now an overcast gray with a chill to the air. Ironic, Orwellian-genre style: “If you want to hear the corporate spin, the carefully-crafted lies, and the media myths — the Democrats are holding their convention next week. But here, at our…
