War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Clouds by any other name is ground fog this early Tuesday on California’s north coast, creating a gloomy-gus gray at first light and supposedly, our mundane weather routine continues today with maybe some decent rain inbound for next week. Not dull, though, a 4.3 earthquake just after 3 this morning, located about 40 miles west-southwest of…
In just more than week, it will be eight years since moving to Humboldt County from down on California’s Central Coast — what a trip a couple of days make. As a recent retiree, I’ve discovered this place ain’t bad — and apparently while working it ain’t bad, either. This morning I browsed the US…
Overcast with a slight-chilled wind this Friday afternoon on California’s north coast — woke up too early and seemingly a bit under the weather. And the “super El Niño” reported a couple of weeks ago still seems to be on track, and with it not only an increase in the wildfire season for California, but…
Overcast and chilly this afternoon here on California’s north coast — the fog was way-thick earlier, but now ever so often sunshine peeks through the mists, so all’s not too bad. What’s real bad is that oil spill down in Santa Barbara, and Dick Cheney. Seems The Dick figured wrong, right when it really counted…
Rain before sunrise this Tuesday morning on California’s north coast, but gone now two/three hours later — overcast still, but supposedly no more wet stuff until later in the week. Apparently, the downpour just dampened sidewalks. In the grip of an ugly drought, a new poll reveals although California folks understand how serious the nature…
Rain clouds but little rain this afternoon on California’s north coast — we’ve received a few isolated ‘sprinkles‘ and that’s all. An occasional dash of sunshine, so there’s that. Last week, a couple of arrogant buffoons stepped into political shit up to their Baghdads, and in a backdoor reversal, let the ugly cat out of…
Sunshine filtered through a shifting overcast this afternoon on California’s north coast, thin-stringy clouds obviously propelled by a chilled northern wind — draft of which to an old guy feels more frosty every few minutes. I just might have to soon shut down my apartment’s ventilation system, and close the windows early today. Way-not unpleasant…
Rain for a change on California’s north coast this early Monday, seemingly more like a drizzle now, but dribbling sounds off the gutters indicate water volume has been decent enough — lived in this apartment so long I can recognize rainwater totals off ping-pang-pop of its external rooftop drainage system. Apparently, the heaviest of the…
Already a blustery wind a-blowing on California’s north coast, and bright, glaring sunshine — just returned from a run (totally a walk) to Safeway, and by the time I got back, my cheeks was stinging from the chilled, whipping breeze. However, I’ll take tingling cheeks over shaking ground any time, anyplace, especially right here. Earlier…
Bright sunshine and gusty wind this afternoon on California’s north coast — skies clear as a chilled-bell with that breeze pretty-blustery at times. Shoreline weather ’round these parts is mostly one of two types — overcast/fog, or cloudless with a bite-to-it wind. Local weather conditions usually lead most of my posts, which comes from just…
