GREEN CAFE

HOURS

Please, appointments only, until further notice. Our email is info@greencafe.com and our phone is (951) 659-6000.

As of May 5, 2025, Green Cafe is twenty-eight years old. Yes, we have been happily in Idyllwild the whole time. We are likely moving to a new location in Idyllwild.

SERVICES

We are an Internet service provider, located at an elevation above 5,500 feet. Our services include WEBSITE DESIGN, DSL, CABLE INTERNET, WIRELESS and COMPUTER ASSISTANCE.

We are Idyllwild based and provide some specialized computer and Internet related services. Additionally, if you came up "The Hill" for the weekend and somehow forgot something technically important, we might be able to tell you where in town, or near town, where you can get the item.

Our primary focus is the advancement and preservation of the arts, culture and the environment through the use of digital technologies. We strongly believe that Idyllwild is much more than a collection of pleasant shops ... but in fact a collection of creative talent located in a dramatic environment that rivals any other area on earth.

AROUND THE SHOP

What type of person hangs around the Green Cafe? Have a seat, hold your breath and look at some of society's greatest public enemies...

Cafe Cinema, home of classic films, is back. For our third event, we will focus on what Hollywood did to ensure artists, producers and writers owned their work outright and to not have to worry about the rampant stealing of their artistic expressions. More to come shortly.

Updated: June 14, 2025

This ONLINE ONLY event is by invitation only and, as always, is free. The event date and time will be emailed to Cafe Cinema club members.

If you are a "Greenster" and are interested in participating, please email us at projectionist@cafecinema.org or sign up at the Cafe Cinema Website.

SATELLITE WEATHER

Satellite imagery is an indispensable tool for determining weather conditions. Below is a recent satellite depiction of the Western United States and the Pacific Ocean, albeit with state boundaries superimposed. The satellite image is updated every five minutes. If the land mass is brown or the circle is green, then its daytime. Blue means the imagery is from nighttime. In case you are curious, the green circle is centered on Idyllwild, California and the red dot approximates the hand of a clock at the time of image capture. A yellow circle indicates nighttime.

Current Satellite View: AIR MASS
GOES satellite view will return. Yellow circles are not in effect in Air Mass view.

*** To view an animation ***

There are three animated satellite sequences to choose from: 1 Hr, 4 Hr and 16 Hr. When clicked, the image below the tab is a snapshot of the cloud conditions from that many hours ago. For example, if you selected the 4 Hr tab at 5 PM, then the image shown below portrays the action at 1:00 PM.

To view the animation from that time to current, simply move your mouse pointer near the green or yellow circle below. Wait a few seconds for the animation to start all the while keeping the mouse pointer near the green circle. The last image will pause for about seven seconds and represents the latest view before the loop starts again.
