Wildfire Threat This Weekend

Firefigher looking at 2018 Substation Fire

Friday, August 9, 2013 2:09 A.M. (Yikes!) I was absent the past week for a fishing trip in Canada and knew that Washington was expected to receive some rain. At the time I left, forecasts were calling for over an inch of rain in areas of Western Washington and perhaps up to FIVE INCHES in parts of the […]

Talk While You Walk

Thursday, July 25, 2013 11:32 P.M. I’ve been thinking lately. About a lot of things… family, fishing, friendships, and, if you can believe it, weather patterns. But there’s something more that I’ve been thinking about, and that is anthropogenic global warming. I’ve touched on this subject quite a few times in this blog, and I’ve […]

An Electrical Storm

Wednesday, July 17, 2013 12:26 P.M. It’s all a matter of perspective. I had a long, meaningful conversation with a girl last night. It wasn’t under starlight, it was under partly cloudy skies. But hey, those were just as cool. She asked me why I wished for bad weather. I was confused; I never wish […]

Valid 05:00 am PDT, Thu 18 Jul 2013 - 60hr Fcst - UW 00z WRF-GFS: 4km column integrated cloud water

Monday, July 15, 2013 10:45 P.M. Howdy everybody. I’ve been trying to readjust to Seattle time today, and I’ve taken a couple steps in the right direction. Today was not without its follies, however. I went fishing at the end of a street near my house, but I kept losing hook, line, and sinker because […]

Hawaii Day 6 (Micronesia Day 23) – Pu’uhonua o Honaunau

Saturday, July 13, 2013 10:54 P.M. It’s weird to think that in less than 24 hours, I will be back at my house. I’ll see my dog, go fishing in the lake and sound, see friends, blast music on my speakers, and play saxophone (albeit I’ll get home after midnight so the last two will […]

Friday, July 12, 2013 11:41 P.M. This is going to be another quickie just to let you know how my day went. It was good. Bye. ___________________________________________________________________ Ok, I’ll give you a little more detail than that.

Hawaii Day 4 (Micronesia Day 21): Volcano National Park

Thursday, July 11, 2013 10:05 P.M. As the title says, my mother and I saw Volcano National Park today. It was a breathtaking experience… I’ll talk to Pele about that… I’d like to have my lungs back. Especially after breathing in all of that sulfur dioxide. But honestly, I couldn’t have imagined a better day. […]

Hawaii Day 3 (Micronesia Day 20): Sea to Sky

Friday, July 19, 2013 1:19 P.M. First off, let me just say that the time I’ve spent on this post is absolutely infuriating. I wrote a decently-sized post, then wrote a much larger post, then found out that the larger post got deleted after Firefox crashed, then tried to clear the cache to see if […]
