Big Sur, California just recorded its warmest water temperature in recorded history.
67.3°F on Monday, 11°F above normal.
Record warm waters for October now span much of the California coast from San Diego to the Bay Area. You can see well above normal sea surface temperatures spreading north throughout October.

Here's an awesome Halloween time painting by the great Joe Jusko. It was used for the cover of CRIMSON EMBRACE VI (link.amazon/B08ROKkBv), an art book featuring paintings of female vampires that was published in 2003.

Just Watched:
Cast A Deadly Spell (1991)
Fred Ward is a hard boiled private detective in an alternate 1940s where magic and monsters exist. Raymond Chandler meets HP Lovecraft. 🕵️😱
A silly and enjoyable TV movie with a great cast. I really liked it. 😄
