Wind

The wind has been heavier than ever this year. It makes you think this will be our loss when global warming really gets going. That heat out in the central valley is rising and the hotter it gets the harder it pulls the summer ocean air across the city. It's only May and Plot can't ride his bike in the afternoon any more, only in the morning. It can start to blow at noon -- unheard of in the old days, except as a rarity. This year there has been a lot of that -- tree branch-breaking wind all day and well into the evening.

The weather is still great, but that wind -- well, it makes you wonder.
