These gorgeous views are coming to you from our River Lodge webcam, and they change several times each minute during the daylight hours. It's light enough for pictures by 06:22 Pacific time. Also view the Fernbridge camera a mile downstream.
Our newest cams:
On the left, one of three cameras located at the Kneeland Airport. On the right, one of the Eureka/Arcata Airport Cams above Clam Beach. If it is clear you can see the ocean on this one.
On the left, the Lighthouse Cam at Point Arena in southern Mendocino County, and on the right is the Lost Coast Cam in Shelter Cove.

The beautiful and rugged North Coast of California is home to this private weather station and its webcams. The urban and the wild mingle here; giant redwood trees, the delicate rustling of eucalyptus leaves, the pounding of the surf, or gurgle of a secluded creek.
This station's microclimate weather data is acquired near the Rohnerville Airport in Fortuna. This weather station is operated and maintained as a public service by sunnyfortuna.com, and for over a decade has recorded, processed, and published the real-time data in coastal Humboldt County's rapidly changing weather conditions.
The Eel River Delta picture on the right is from one of our many webcams, a beautiful view of one of the most scenic spots in Fortuna. See it larger! The view of the Pacific Ocean is awesome from our cam at the Inn of the Lost Coast in Shelter Cove.

Blueberries do so well here on the North Coast. They have few pests, are so easy to grow and the fruit is so healthy for you. By planting several different varieties you could harvest blueberries for three months every year for the next twenty years.
Blueberries are now available in local nurseries. Find out more in the updated Blueberry section at Humgardens.com.

This month's highest soil temperature was 66°F on 09/01, and its lowest was 65°F on 09/02.

In 2015, the lowest soil temperature dropped to 42° in January, and the highest reached 73° in July. This yearly range is fairly typical at this location and was measured at a depth of 8 inches. We hope to add a sensor to a raised bed this year.
Knowing the last frost date is a good rule of thumb, but an inexpensive soil thermometer will actually do a better job of helping you plan your garden.
