July is a month associated with summer in the Northern Hemisphere.Generally the warmest month in the Northern Hemisphere and the coldest in the Southern Hemisphere.” Dog Days” are considered to begin in early July in the Northern Hemisphere when the hot sultry weather of summer usually starts.

Before I stop talking about the 4th-
Here is a remarkable coincidence…. Thomas Jefferson and John Adams, the only two signatories of the Declaration of Independence later to serve as presidents of the United States, both died on the same day: July 4, 1826, which was the 50th anniversary of the Declaration. Although not a signatory of the Declaration of Independence,James Monroe, another Founding Father who was elected president, also died on July 4, 1831, making him the third President who died on the anniversary of independence. The only U.S. president to have been born on Independence Day was Calvin Coolidge, who was born on July 4, 1872
