According to U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM), Iran launched a total of seven ballistic missiles against Bahrain and Kuwait earlier in retaliation for the shoot down of four one-way attack drones today over the Strait of Hormuz and U.S. strikes against Iranian coastal surveillance radar sites in Goruk and on Qeshm Island. Six of the missiles launched by Iran were intercepted while the seventh did not reach its intended target, causing no casualties among U.S. servicemembers and no damage to the U.S. 5th Fleet Headquarters in Bahrain.
Leaked sticking points for US-Iran negotiations failings:
-Continued US interception of Iranian ships causing several instances of drone and missile exchanges straining talks.
-Israeli actions in Lebanon violating ceasefire agreement.
-Iran refusing to transfer enriched uranium out and wanting total sanctions relief, trying to exclude nuclear at all from negotiations.

Thanks Trump for screwing us, you worm....
A remarkable 3.5˚C rise in central equatorial Pacific Ocean temperatures is possible by November, shows new ECMWF, which would mark the strongest El Niño on record.
Possible strength scenarios range from +2.8˚C to +4.3˚C, with sweeping consequences on global climate into 2027.
The first true heat wave of the summer will arrive next week across much of the Central and Southern Plains, eventually making its way to the east coast towards the end of the week.
