Interested to see the effects of coming storms on Santa Cruz conditions

A source of endless fascination for most anglers is to watch the seasons change. This week while surfcasting from a midtown Santa Cruz beach, I noticed Steamer Lane’s Middle Peak was showing some impressive size to the sets. “Winter is here,” I smiled to myself. A quick delve into the local marine and weather forecasts confirmed that feeling, and in a big way.

Opposing flag football coaches had a hard time accounting for Watsonville High senior Taylor Alves-Lopez anytime she stepped on the gridiron this past 2026 fall season. Not only was she blazing fast, but the Wildcat senior used her agility and swift movements to get past three, sometimes up to four, blockers to reach the quarterback.

A Santa Cruz property manager may learn about a plumbing problem from a utility alert before anyone reports a wet floor. That is a useful change in how buildings can be monitored, particularly when an unexplained increase in water consumption might otherwise remain unnoticed until the next billing cycle. But...

Rachael Short is a photographer whose story is known to many in Monterey County. A talented artist from a young age, Short was a thriving photographer who in 2009 opened (with Evynn LeValley) Gallery Exposed. A 2010 car crash changed everything. A spinal cord injury changed how Short lives forever, but two years later, the artist returned to taking photos—as one can learn studying her artistic trajectory on her website—this time with her iPhone, capturing images using her mouth or tongue and editing them on an iPad.

Golden State Theatre’s restored lobby is a step into the architectural wonders of its time.

During the day, the Golden State Theatre looks as if it’s napping, getting its beauty sleep before a night out, but the truth is that a lot is going on inside the building. Noise and traffic at the glass lobby doors are typically caused by preparations for an evening show, although lately much of it relates to the slow, ongoing and careful renovation of the historic venue.

Felton resident turning San Lorenzo Valley on to Brazilian martial art

A few years ago, Felton resident Dale Knight was looking for an extra activity for his son, who had a lot of excess energy to burn.

Sundrift sea lion returns to the wild after recovery

An adult female California sea lion named Sundrift was recently released back into the wild after being treated for domoic acid poisoning during the largest domoic acid outbreak in The Marine Mammal Center's 51-year history. Sundrift spent about a month receiving care at the center's Sausalito hospital, where she was treated for domoic acid poisoning, malnutrition and pneumonia. She was among more than 300 California sea lions rescued for care this year as the center documented 328 cases of domoic acid toxicosis. The majority of cases have occurred since July 1, with Monterey, Santa Cruz and San Mateo counties emerging as the primary hotspots for response activity. The outbreak is well above normal levels, as The Marine Mammal Center typically rescues 75 to 90 animals annually for domoic acid poisoning across its approximately 600-mile California response range. The surge in sick animals placed significant demands on the center's largely volunteer response teams. Rescuing a single sea lion experiencing neurological symptoms can require four to six trained responders, a carrier crate weighing 50 to 100 pounds and, in some cases, a walk of more than a mile along the beach. Because the toxin affects the nervous system, affected animals can be

Weekender: Festivals and events for a rainy weekend

A wet weekend, Santa Cruz. But don’t worry, I have suggestions for — mostly indoor — ways to get out despite the rain. The Goat Hill Fair — offering antiques, crafts and collectibles, not livestock — returns to the Santa Cruz County Fairgrounds in Watsonville tomorrow and Saturday. On Saturday, Annieglass in Watsonville hosts The Good Table, a creative fundraiser where 10 decorated tables compete for your vote. Each table represents a local nonprofit or cause, and every vote cast is a contribution.

The U.S. Open comes to Pebble Beach in June. The first video of it was shot this week.

Dave Faries here, thinking back to Wednesday. If you remember, Nov. 11 was a glorious sunny day—the calm before the forecast storms. It was also the first outward sign of the upcoming men’s U.S. Open golf tournament, which will play out on Pebble Beach Golf Links June 17-20, 2027.
