Winter's not exactly roaring here
Still mild even with skies unclear
Humid air from a southern flow
Summer-like as the High does go
Farther off the coast today
Moving on and making way
For change
A planet set on rearrange
While we have temps above the norm
Outside & above LA., a snow storm
That system is headed our way
Setting up a rainy Sunday
Gotta go up to get the snow
Here, we're just way too low
Humidity's up, know how I knew
Exposed rocks, covered in dew
The soil at the surface is quite cool
So, today it broke the dew point rule
Go below Dew Point & I bet
Condensation is what you get
There it was, easy to see
Every rock, wet as could be
In other news, half a world away
Annular eclipse happened yesterday
Here's a shot, from space weather site
Through the clouds, lovely sight
The moon was just too far away
To block the sun completely
Pretty cool
Might catch a tiny crescent tonight
Near Saturn if on a hilltop site
Tomorrow just to Venus's right
That should be a lovely sight
Probably have clouds here...
Meanwhile, deep inside the Earth
Convection cells are giving birth
To new crust & crunching the old
Result: rocks are getting bold
And, moving about
Earthquakes giving a shout
Caribbean plate, ongoing subduction
No hint of quake reduction
Off Puerto Rico
Bet, most folks don't know
Quakes offshore and fairly deep
Just so there's no lava creep..
Only big quakes Turkey & Iran
2 countries where reality's long gone
Theocratic thugs, ready to kill
If you don't swallow allah's pill
Just more of the scary despot scene
Rulers more than willing to clean
Out the wallets of everyone
So they can have power & fun
Local, state and national
Robbing us blind while ranting irrational
More local incompetence uncovered
In EVERY project, we've discovered
Just put another Sambo on it
Tax payers take the hit
Some things don't change..
Today On Earth
