In December of 2022, Phil Lewenthal photographed theses offshore rocks, showing a triangle-shaped rock wedged in an opening on  the upper right.

After the big storms last month, Phil found this sight. Another rock was deposited on top of the hanging rock seen last year!

Those had to be huge waves to be able to carry another rock and deposit it up there. Amazing!

Thanks to Phil for allowing me to share his photos with you here.

It's terribly windy here today. There has been some scattered rain and our lovely spring-like temperatures are a thing of the past. It's about 20 degrees cooler today. This morning there were rainbows, which is always a treat. Rain is in our forecast with cooler than normal temps. There is a possibility of snow, something that is very rare on the Mendonoma Coast.

As storm after storm slam onto the Mendonoma Coast, the wave action has been amazing. Jon Loveless photographed some dramatic waves off The Sea Ranch. Note the house on the right side of Jon's photo for some scale.

The sound of these big breakers is amazing...listen and you might hear them too.

Today we are being hit with a big storm. It's possible the Garcia River will flood Highway One. After four years of subpar rain years, it is exhilarating to experience these storms.
