Henry Kissinger told the House committee that there was no cover up about the Nixon letter offering 4.75 billion dollars in aid to North Vietnam.

Weather ridge blamed for nation heat wave
Weathermen attribute a strong long lasting high pressure ridge to the heat baking much of the United States. The amplified ridge, starting in the Midwest in early July, deflects storms northward, trapping warm moist air from the Southwest and stabilizing the atmosphere over major cities.
