March 2026 Skies
So far, I'm doing what I set out to do and that is post a monthly sky shots. March 2026 is on track to be one of the driest Marches in Bay Area history recording little to no rain through March 29th (time of writing). This dry spell is expected to be broken with rain forecast between March 30th and early April. Hopefully, we get more than what is predicted. A heatwave struck the Bay Area in mid March setting all-time monthly records, most notable in my mind is San Francisco hitting 90F on March 20th, breaking the record set in 1874 of 78F. Global warming is real.
Still working hybrid schedule, I use my coffee break in the morning when I WFH to take a walk around the neighborhood.
After work in the afternoon, I take another walk around the neighborhood, just in time for sunset sighting.
Another day, another sunset.
Skywatching while listening to Irish music at St. Patrick's Celebration in Dublin, California.
On March 28, we drove to St. Helena in Napa Valley to have brunch. Afterwards we attempted to burn the calories from the butter-laden
pastries we consumed at brunch by walking around downtown. Surprisingly, we found dogwoods in full bloom. Aren't they early this year? I remember in the past that they bloom in mid to late May around these parts. Can you tell me when do they bloom in your neck of the woods?
Looking up at the blue skies through the dogwood blooms.
A block and a half from my house is a hillside (open space) that offers a good view of the fireworks from 3 or 4 neighboring cities. It is also home to deers, wild turkeys and other wildlife (saw a coyote on the same spot). This is at twilight while I was on my way back home completing my walk. I have never seen this many at one time.
