Bright, way-clear sunshine tempered by a chilly breeze this late afternoon Thursday in California’s Central Valley — finally a distinct autumn day. Summer this year has been a bitch — our hottest ever — and it looked like it would never end. Ending quickly, too, could be our environment, not only for my location but for…
Clear skies and on the coolish-side temperatures — comparatively speaking — here a bit after the noon hour Friday in California’s Central Valley as for the first time in a shitload of space we’re under 90 degrees as a high today, shaping up for finally a full onslaught of the fall season. Weather shifts are…
Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water: Details nutshell via the Guardian this afternoon: The latest system, Tropical Storm Milton, formed in the Gulf of Mexico on Saturday. Forecasters expect the storm to quickly strengthen into a hurricane and rush toward Florida in the next few days. The National…
Clear, bright, sunshine and way-pleasant temps this near-noon Friday here in California’s Central Valley — nicer here than the southern part of the state where wildfires and earthquakes are causing a shitstorm of anxiety. The shaking continues with a 3.4 magnitude quake near Malibu early this morning (yesterday a 4.7 in about the same spot)…
Hot sunshine with just a whisper of a faint breeze just short of the noon hour here in California’s Central Valley — we’re still rocking along with a prolonged heat event (now a couple of weeks old) expected to last until this coming weekend. Although cooler today — 109 degrees vs yesterday’s 111 — the…
(A somewhat-sweltering respite from the asshole SCOTUS bullshit from earlier today, which in turn, caused regurgitating opinions/viewpoints to fully-fester throughout the InterWebs this afternoon, all seemingly saddled with the whine-cry of ‘we be fucked…‘) Hot, heavy air this late-afternoon Monday here in California’s Central Valley — a summer crush of excessive heat even worse than…
Clear, bright, and hot as shit already just past the noon hour Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley — we’re under an intense triple-digit-heat advisory for the next couple of days; then a ‘cooling‘ span over the weekend (temps ‘only‘ in the high 90s), followed with an abrupt return to 100-plus warmth for early next week.…
Heavy-weighed warmth despite a semi-overcast sky this late-afternoon Monday here in California’s Central Valley with clear-yellow sunshine occasionally brightening the landscape, though, the tone is more muted than actually considered anywhere near hot. A gentle, soft breeze that’s been swirling around all day long has kept the edge off those temperatures. An edge reportedly to…
Crystal-clear, blue skies, and sharp, clean sunshine this late-afternoon Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley. And warm temps, too — highs in the mid-to-upper 70s with a cool, nice-feeling breeze. Of itself a gorgeous time. A day, however, most-likely an undercurrent preview for a hot, shitty summer to come. Yet right now enjoy while it’s…
Overcast with the threat of more rain this near-noon Friday here in California’s Central Valley — we’re on the rim of a massive winter storm that crashed into the northern portion of the state last night. Despite the storm’s power lash, we will most likely just get a breeze-like effect instead of the power of…
