Stormy Rain, Front, Minor Cool Down...

Almost exactly when forecast(3pm), the squall line rumbled through, 1/2" of rain but the front wasn't here so we are not in the (relative) cool, yet. It is close and today we will likely not make 90. It is July, so the 90's will return by mid-week and with little chance for rain all week.
The rest of the country and world continue to deal with heat, storms, droughts and floods and out west, lots and lots of fires...the usual for the new, cooking planet. Northern tier of states back to 90+ heat; Glacier Nat. Park losing more ice, down to less that 15 active glaciers...need any more proof the planet is warming rapidly? It ain't forest mismanagement..dumbass..
Couple of good western hemisphere shakes today, 5.1 off N. California and 6.1 off Panama but offshore and no waves lapping up. Few quakes in the low 5's but no real quake issues today.
Tough day in my yard for a trio of birds; pile of feathers in the yard the remains of someone eaten and two siblings(?) bashed into my newly cleaned windows and did not make it. Both removed before becoming dog treats. There has been a hawk screaming and hanging about, be nice if he'd eat some squirrels.
Sun is spotty on our side but the real issue seems to be about 3 days from turning Earth's way. We'll soon see what they got left. Moon waxing on, Full Buck moon a week away. Venus beaming but behind clouds here last night.
Few TrumpVirus cases or deaths reported on site for yesterday but news reports from unvaxed states (of denial) has ICU's filling and deniers dying...seeeeeeeeya mo-rons!!
It is a lovely day on the south coast of England for the last round of the Open Championship, lot of jitters so far, lot of pressure with a stick in you hand staring at a small white ball...I'll be watching, Today On Earth.
Lot of yellow on this turtle..
