Little rain on the horizon as England and Wales experience driest July on record
England has experienced its driest July since records began in 1836, receiving only 6.5mm of rainfall – 10% of the country’s long-term meteorological average for the month. Wales also experienced its driest-ever July, while Northern Ireland recorded its eighth driest. Scotland was the only country in the UK not to set new records but still received only 69% of its average rainfall for July compared with the long-term average. Southern England faced the worst of the dry conditions with some areas, including the Sussex coast, receiving less than 0.2mm of rain in July. This resulted in widespread low moisture content within the soil, enabling temperatures to reach the high 30s celsius.

Bridges And Roads Are So Fundamental To Human Survival That The Geneva Conventions Protect Them - Jalopnik

Planes, trains, automobiles, and the infrastructure built to support them are vital to human survival. They're so essential to life that these thoroughfares, like the Strait of Hormuz and its disputed freedom and opening, become massive trigger points in wars. Without them, the people who live or work within cut-off areas can suffer substantially as they are stranded, starved, or basically left to die, similar to how the U.S.-Iran war is stranding soldiers in the Strait. A devastating World War II annihilated many of Europe's bridges and roadways, so much so that nations convened in 1949 to add an entire section to the Geneva Conventions to protect that critical infrastructure. It would ensure many nations' roads and bridges would be protected from being destroyed in war in the future.
