High overcast with sunshine this Thursday afternoon on California’s north coast, though, a porous/moist gray blanket hanging just in sight west of my apartment indicates most-likely heavy shoreline fog closer to the ocean. Rain still on for the weekend, supposedly. No inkling earlier today was a heinous-celebratory one — the 12th anniversary of the US…
Overcast and chilly this Monday afternoon on California’s north coast, dampening the air with moist, low clouds that appear thick as shit. Sunshine scheduled for tomorrow and Wednesday, rain expected again toward the end of the week. Dry changes in a routine that’s as fluid as a brick. In retirement now close to seven months,…
Bright sunshine and warm skies this near-about noon on California’s north coast, with today a short respite from drizzle and rain — a new storm expected tomorrow, and supposedly to last through the weekend. Yesterday, a new study reported on another possible deadly ‘epidemic‘ in the near future — being lonely, just as bad as…
Fogbound again this early Tuesday on California’s north coast, seemingly signaling another example of premature spring/early-summer weather routine for our shoreline — fog doesn’t usually hang like this until later in the season. Heat does carry an influence. Ostensibly, I do a lot of posts on climate change, mainly because there’s always something new, and…
Damp, dense fog this Monday afternoon — seeming the last few days have been imbedded within a gray, gloomy blanket-like, life-portrait painted with faded light, mixed in cold air. Weather-wise, too, our home and hearth heating warmer. Last week, the NWS revealed this has been Humboldt County’s warmest winter in its recorded history. So likewise and…
Dawn’s rain this early Friday on California’s north coast — the heavy stuff arriving earlier with a good downpour after midnight. Dark and wet and gloomy as we quickly finish-off February’s rapid exposure, and attempt to become primed-and-ready for beware-middle-of-the-month March, which makes an entrance on Sunday. A week later, we’ll make sure shit goes…
Bright with a stiff chilly wind this afternoon on California’s north coast — another day in the retired life. The ongoing science-reality, horror-saga of Japan’s Fukushima nuclear power plant continues, now approaching the fourth anniversary of its infamous earthquake/tsunami meltdown. And the situation still sucks, bad. (Illustration found here). Via Newsweek this afternoon: The operator…
Clear sunrise and cold air this early Monday on California’s north coast, we’re just a few degrees above freezing, and the morning feels it. Forecast is for rain by Thursday, or earlier, and wet on-and-off for the following few days — whether or not depends on the weather. In that insane vein, we do a…
Gray-overcast and cold this early Friday on California’s north coast, yet supposedly doesn’t spell what’s coming, weather-wise — sunshine and warmth, maybe up into the mid-70s by Sunday. Meanwhile: Bob Henson at WunderBlog yesterday afternoon: ‘The next winter storm will intensify into a powerhouse east of New England on Thursday and Friday, with surface pressure deepening…
Partly cloudy skies reddened with sunshine this early Wednesday on California’s north coast — supposedly a clear, sunny day ahead, but already way-colder. After just a couple of weeks of that warm, southern ‘atmospheric rivers’ weather, an old guy can way-quickly become maladjusted. And of course, ‘way-colder,’ is way-relative. An interesting note this morning, another…
