30°F, foggy, NE 2 mph wind The rest of the country is experiencing some cold weather as well. My toilet is frozen and I’m pooping in a bucket now. 😑. Haven’t had running water for days. But I’m not complaining because I know things could be so much worse, and likely will be from hereContinueContinue reading “The Gulf of Mexico states are experiencing snow.”

2024 rain totals
103.94” of rain for this location. Of course this app could be wrong, but this is the most accurate app to my specific location that I have found. It pretty much matches up with my neighbor’s home weather station. For record keeping purposes, I’m calling it close enough since I don’t have my own weatherContinueContinue reading “2024 rain totals”
A rain free day— yesterday
46°, Partly Cloudy, Light Wind Day off and I was feeling pretty good. I know I should stay home on days like this and work the homestead but I took my dog out for some spoiling fun walking instead at one of the local coastal parks. He deserved a day of spoiling. Meanwhile, a videoContinueContinue reading “A rain free day— yesterday”
Wind Storm- Flying Buildings and Blueberry Jam
54°, light rain, breezy “I’m tired of these storms! There never used to be so many!” Proclaimed my climate change denying neighbor when I mentioned another storm arriving Sunday. Last week we had a bit of a storm. And one I wasn’t quite expecting. Tuesday night, I woke up on hearing a bang and aContinueContinue reading “Wind Storm- Flying Buildings and Blueberry Jam”
Water Rising?
These berms made of rock were put in along this road to my place of employment a couple years ago to keep king tides from flooding the road. Yesterday the road definitely flooded. I had to move some logs off the road yesterday on my way home once the tide had retired back to whereContinueContinue reading “Water Rising?”
San Francisco with it’s first Tornado Warning in History
52°, rain, lots of wind There is another cyclone causing issues again at the coast. This time my area is feeling a bit more wind than the last one and places like San Francisco is seeing some weather it normally doesn’t. It will probably be raining for a week or so, but that isn’t tooContinueContinue reading “San Francisco with it’s first Tornado Warning in History”
Still air and clear skies-
Clear, frosty (probably mid 20’s) A picture from early in the year. These are a sign of a cold night here. And it was indeed a cold night again. I was prepared for it this time having shut off my water before hand to prevent any damage to my pipes. Pipes that are not asContinueContinue reading “Still air and clear skies-“
Sun out, frost in.
That’s the way of winter here. If it’s clear, you get the cold mornings. The frosts. Not Midwest or mountain cold, but you’ll get ice on the windshield and frozen water buckets, which usually thaws by afternoon. Clouds usually moderate the winter temperature here. Which is another reason I chose this area. I’ve lived inContinueContinue reading “Sun out, frost in.”
Get Them While You Can
Climate change, regime change, and preventable illness. I can’t tell you how many times a day I hear around this area that scientists and Doctors are fake and out to harm people. As someone who has a degree in the sciences it’s rather insulting and also false. Why would we spend our whole lives tryingContinueContinue reading “Get Them While You Can”
Only Minimal Damage on the Homestead
The reason I chose this particular location, was because I studied the possible wind patterns. The reason I chose to have no large growing trees near my little home is also because I have seen what that can do to a home and human lives. Yes, the shade is very nice, especially in hot climatesContinueContinue reading “Only Minimal Damage on the Homestead”
