Rain this early Friday on California’s north coast, and a storm that might put a small dent on our horrific drought — nearly 5 inches of rain expected, and bigger rainfall coming for the weekend. And with the noted “pineapple express” — temperatures warm and near-balmy are forecast for the region. Meteorologist Dr. Jeff Masters:…
Overcast and feeling like rain this early Thursday up here on California’s north coast, a sense hopefully that really does pan out — big wet weather set for tonight and on into the weekend. Forecasts indicate 3 to 5 inches of rain between now and Sunday with heavy snow in the mountains, and “…we should…
Clear and chilly this early Wednesday here on California’s north coast, the work-week moving right along, though, not fast enough. News sprouting out this morning is fairly bland, or continuous-ugly in nature (i.e., the US farm bill bullshit) as the eyeballs of the world begin to sharply-focus on the upcoming winter games, starting this Friday…
Key to the latest Eddie-Snowden tidbit: Even more troubling, according to Information’s assessment, is that the top secret “document suggests that the NSA’s […] focus in relation to climate change was spying on other countries to collect intelligence that would support American interests, rather than preventing future climate catastrophes.” (Illustration found here). This newest sketch…
Overcast with some occasional rain this early Wednesday on California’s north coast with more expected today and tomorrow. Weather of the weird. Beyond the sprinkles, big coverage this morning, of course, is President Obama’s State of the Union last night — most of the commentary I’ve seen has shown it to be better-than-average, maybe the…
Lo, and behold, Friday! And it’s clear and warm this early morning here on California’s north coast, with ‘weirding weather‘ making its play as right now we’re over 50 degrees and the forecast is for warmer temperatures today than yesterday, which was a surprise to everybody. On Thursday, freezing cold at dawn to a T-shirt-only…
Clear and chilly this way-too-early Thursday here on California’s north coast — and apparently earthquake weather, too. We had a 4.7 last night, but I didn’t feel a thing — it was located more than 70 miles southwest of where I’m at, but not many locals felt it, just a “short, fast jolt” if anything.…
Heavy ground fog this early Tuesday on California’s north coast, which in turn makes the moist air a little-bit warmer — meanwhile, on the eastern US seaboard today winter keeps on keeping on with storms to drop near a foot of snow. In all the shit going-down nowadays, this a really-good, feel-good story: “I went over…
Clear and a bit on the chilly side this early Monday on California’s north coast — a big chunk of the moon still lights the western sky, shimmering now out over the Pacific Ocean. And no rain in anybody’s sight. No moisture, no water — last Friday, dry shit hit the fan as Gov. Jerry…
Yesterday afternoon, restless and unpredictable after a worrisome nap, and after what seemingly was an inconceivable amount of time, I finally clicked on Eddie Murphy’s way-gone, way-lame 1980s, ‘Coming to America,’ via Netflix. Maybe near two decades since I’d seen it — the kids growing up watched a lot of movies, and I sat amongst…
