Breezy-bright sunshine and rolling, blustery clouds this near-noon Wednesday on California’s north coast. The rainstorm from last night gone this morning — leaving a small, barely-damp footprint, and a clear, sparkling sunrise. Photo at the right is a sky-shot off my back patio a little-bit earlier, an overall epitome-picture of the weather around my abode…
Overcast skies submerged into a deep, gray environment this Tuesday evening on California’s north coast, and although there’s only been a sprinkle of rain every-now-and-then, a fairly-big storm is due tonight. According to the NWS, we could get more than half-an-inch in this latest patch, with the next one due the middle of next week.…
Overcast cushioned with a moist-fog here this Friday afternoon on California’s north coast, and precipitation-warm, with rain still expected maybe tonight and into tomorrow. Forecasts call for just a quick rain patch, however, so small appears gone and dry-again by Sunday, predicted by the NWS to be ‘Mostly Sunny.’ Our drought continues, even though forecasts…
Drizzle-as-rain this Saturday morning on California’s north coast, and although the liquid fog is barely moist, it’s still wet. According to forecasts at the beginning of the week, the storm is a couple of days early. Skies yesterday afternoon were pretty dark, the air warm, anticipation qualities for showers — from what I could tell,…
Seemingly unusually-warm, at least to me, this Sunday afternoon on California’s north coast — just a bit earlier, taking my daughter’s dog for her afternoon constitutional also carried a sense of close-to-hot. On a news surf just now, the Guardian‘s front page gave my shoreline-spot temperature as 83-degrees. I figured no-freaking-way. According to the Eureka…
Another bright, sunshine afternoon on California’s north coast, rain now only a quick-memory as temperatures are expected to go warm again, especially in the interior valleys — still, ocean-breeze cool along the shoreline with some location-highs supposedly in the low-70s. And of California’s “super” saver (via the Washington Post): ‘“El Niño is a cruel system,”…
Actual, real rain this early Wednesday, splashing across California’s north coast, and not just here, but this is a supposedly-goodly storm for northern California, bringing some way-needed wet. Rainfall totals along the shoreline are hard to judge, but from weather maps, the wet looks real-wet for all of the region, and some strong winds, maybe…
Sunshine just a little while ago, now coastal fog has replaced the upswing brightness this Monday morning here on California’s north coast, and like a mental patient with mood swings, the shoreline weather is all over the place. And hot, too. Reportedly, this is to be one hot week, especially of course, for the interior,…
Sunshine this Thursday afternoon on California’s north coast — a persistent-gloomy cloud-bank from in the morning finally evaporated some, or got scattered about, or whatever, and now a sun-bright aura enlivens my apartment to some degree every so often, lasting from a few seconds to a few minutes, then darkness comes. The light less bright.…
Thick, darkly-gray outside this way-too-early Friday on California’s north coast — most-likely low clouds submerged with ground fog (if there’s such a circumstance) to create a moist, vaporous and uncomfortable-looking morning. We were forecast for some pretty-decent rain the middle of this week, but it failed to materialize, beyond the spattering on Monday, and the…
