Drizzle-as-rain this Saturday morning on California’s north coast, and although the liquid fog is barely moist, it’s still wet. According to forecasts at the beginning of the week, the storm is a couple of days early. Skies yesterday afternoon were pretty dark, the air warm, anticipation qualities for showers — from what I could tell,…
Bright sunshine and a warm breeze this Friday morning on California’s north coast, and although there’s a ‘slight’ chance of rain for this weekend, the odds are fairly low. The Pacific Ocean is another matter, though. The NWS this morning warns of large swells up to 15 feet along the shoreline, and beware: Beaches currently have…
Seemingly unusually-warm, at least to me, this Sunday afternoon on California’s north coast — just a bit earlier, taking my daughter’s dog for her afternoon constitutional also carried a sense of close-to-hot. On a news surf just now, the Guardian‘s front page gave my shoreline-spot temperature as 83-degrees. I figured no-freaking-way. According to the Eureka…
Warm sunshine tempered by a chilled Pacific breeze this Friday afternoon on California’s north coast, with nearly-clear skies and a sunny look to the weekend.

Although forecasters were calling for rain tomorrow night, usually it comes sooner. This week, a fast-moving storm…
UPDATE this morning Last night, California legislators in Sacramento did actually pass what’s now been dubbed the, “Medical Marijuana Regulation and Safety Act” — from our local Times-Standard, and North Coast state Sen. Mike McGuire: ‘“This was a heavy lift by all involved, but the top priority for the Senate and the Assembly and the…
Heavy fog again this Friday morning on California’s north coast in a repeat of yesterday’s early weather, and if the plan goes accordingly, we’ll soon have clear skies with a warm afternoon. Of course, today is the 14th anniversary of the World Trade Center horror — and the feelings of all Americans are caught up…
Bright sunshine and warm air this Tuesday morning on California’s north coast — we’re supposedly in for a warm streak again this week with temps maybe up in the low-70s here at the coast, 20-degrees higher within interior valleys. All considered above normal heat for this time of year — worse down south just a…
Foggy and a bit on the chilly side this Monday morning on California’s north coast — most-likely all will burn off later with sunshine and ocean breezes set for the afternoon. And today, of course, is Labor Day — if you didn’t know that, you are in need of some help — and supposedly a…
