A Big Ole Moon...And, The Heat Is On!!

Last Night's Full "Pink" Moon was super, literally & figuratively, near perigee made it literal, it was larger than average and just so big and bright..you get it, if you saw it. It'll still be sizable tonight as it begins to wane back toward New.
The sun remains rather active, explosively so. No direct CME blasts headed toward Earth but we may get a grazing blow sparking auroras. Mars still shines nicely in the SW in the evening with not much else around..that's bright, anyway.
PNG wins the world shake contest today with several in the upper and lower magnitude 5's but all are offshore and no tsunami warnings. North of New Zealand also some 5-ish shakes as well as around Scotia Plate. Couple of rumbles off W. coast of Africa (Gabon). Alaska with both rock and ice quakes!!
Story here today is the building heat wave, into mid 80's today, closer to 90 the next two days. That will be quickly tempered this weekend with a cold front, spring a fickle thing. Planetary warming slowly creeping onward and upward.
TrumpVirus continues to surge through GOP; yesterday's ranting all based on a fake report in Brit tabloid. The hate mongering losers looking for any excuse to blame, enrage and vilify. Maybe they should be stuffing a little less beef in their fat faces..but, at least cover your bulbous snout with a mask.
The virus itself, still evolving, rages on here and worldwide; Brazil and now India the epicenters of death, denial and stupidity these days (but 479 Americans also died yesterday..). If you look at any picture from India and don't see the problem..you are missing the obvious: there are way too many people there, living too close together and most thinking some fat or multi-limbed god is going to protect and/or save them..and still no help arrives from the real or ethereal world..dumbasses.. Half the country could die and it would still be overcrowded. And, does anyone see the insanity of burning all those dead bodies in open air pyres, cutting down trees for wood to burn bodies..dumbasses.
Time to rouse a napping dog and head out for a warm walk, Today On Earth.
