Clear and a little chilly this way-early Tuesday on California’s north coast, and hopefully we’ll have another gorgeous day like Monday. Yesterday afternoon I worked on my truck in shirtsleeves — no sweatshirt, jacket or anything — this as good as it gets weather-wise up here. No matter the season. Seemingly, the story today is…
Clear and chilly-cold this early Friday on California’s north coast as we power-up for the weekend. Right now, we’re at 45 degrees and on the road to a balmy 60 by Sunday — the ice age has passed, for now. And in the contradictory weirdness of climate change, odd is normal (via Climate Central): The…
Cloudless skies this afternoon on California’s north coast and abundant sunshine — but still a bit cold, but nothing like the past few days. We’re at about 53 degrees right now with a low tonight forecast to be well-above freezing. Enough weather, already. In the precarious events-cycle this PM, a quick surf indicates a semi-slow…
Clear and cold this way-too-early Tuesday on California’s north coast, and if the forecasts prove correct, we should be getting warmer weather this week. Outside right now, it’s a balmy 35 degrees! However, for a big chunk of the US, it’s still freezing-ass-cold: “I don’t think things are going to warm up any time soon,”…
Clear and cold this early Friday on California’s north coast with icy rain due sometime later today in a frigid start-up to the weekend. Cold here, cold everywhere, especially across Texas and most of the US Midwest — Dallas Home Depot Manager James McGilberry: “It’s almost like a Black Friday, but I guess we’ll call…
Clear and cold again this Friday morning on California’s north coast as we prepare for the weekend — temperature right now is just a tad above freezing. Outlook for the next few days appears the same, nothing new. And today, of course, is the 50th anniversary of the JFK assassination in Dallas. Fifty is one…
Cold and windy this Monday afternoon, and though we’re forecast for rain to arrive anytime now, the weather-ambiance this near the coast leaves calling the shots up in the air — thunderstorms are predicted for tomorrow. Life is a wait-and-see routine sometimes. Technology’s storm sight is Instagram: @shanahan7, Tazewell County, Ill. The house… Damn :/…
Thick ground fog and a touch on the chilled side this Wednesday mid-afternoon on California’s north coast — fairly normal conditions for this area, though, normal being way-relative nowadays. In that particular, special aptitude, the words, “new normal,” seemingly have evolved through experience into a way-lame catch-phrase, words now used so often, it’s “normal” to…
Oh, sweet, sweet Friday — high overcast with some twinkling stars visible here on California’s north coast this way-early morning as we prepare for the weekend. Look’s like somebody’s got a case of the Fridays. One guy who’s got a bad case of a the ‘second term,’ is President Obama — this year has been…
Early Sunday and falling back on time. Actually, I’m still an hour ahead, but at my leisure sometime this morning will set life right, clock-wise anyway. The laptop, though, is already set in reality. Day Savings Time is pretty ridiculous. And depending on where you live in the US, the overall affect/effect of DST is…
