I’ll be on weather watch starting tomorrow night, although all predictions have down-graded this next storm, and no debris flows are anticipated with the one we watched coming on the horizon before the sunset – light clouds, nothing significant.

But watching the fog move in was like watching a wave approach. As I got closer to home, driving the coast the whole way, I watched the fog creep toward me, finally hugging the coast as I settled in up here on my mountain top. Weather can be so fascinating to watch.
