A lot of snowbirds head home when the temperature goes above about 85 F (30 C) because they can’t take it like we can, which is what will be happening today and for a couple more days before some thick middle and high clouds move in toward the weekend with their often accompanying blazing sunsets/sunrise to go with the blazing temperatures. So, expect some extra traffic on the roads in the next few days. If this blog was a grammar school playground, I’d be calling them “little crybabies” when I saw them leaving.
But, while the hot regime digs in now, “I want to leave you today with this final thought”1but one in the form of a weather map:
For credence, and transparent, or “clear water” credibility2, we look to the NOAA spaghetti bowl to see if that map above has any support:
The End
—————————–
1This phrase is kind of a literary device, a trick really, often used to keep people reading, thinking that the piece is going to end without them investing too much more time. But then it goes on some more.
2Though it would be a good name for a band, its not a strained and awkward allusion to the 60s band (“Creedence”3 CR) that broke up because of all the infighting and never got back together to do legacy tours of all their great hits and make a lot money like the Eagles did when they resolved all of THEIR infighting (almost). I guess Hell hasn’t frozen over for CCR. Too bad. I remember seeing CCR live at the Santa Clara County Fairgrounds, and how the whole audience leaped up in unison and as if by command when they launched into their hit, “Proud Mary” with those big, booming chords we all learned to play on our guitars!
3A common misspelling of the word, “credence.” The band was not known for spelling, but man, to name your band with a misspelled word, wow.
