Good morning, Whitewater.
The National Weather Service reports that Saturday in town will be a decreasingly cloudy day, but one could almost as well say an increasingly sunny one. We’ll have a high of about seventy-six. Sunrise is 5:46 and sunset is 7:56, for 14h 10m 17s of daytime. The moon is a waxing gibbous with 97.5% of its visible disk illuminated.

On this day in 2011, bin Laden meets his fate:
Osama bin Laden, the founder and head of the Islamist militant group al-Qaeda, was killed in Pakistan on May 2, 2011, shortly after 1:00 am PKT[1][2] (20:00 UTC, May 1) by United States Navy SEALs of the U.S. Naval Special Warfare Development Group (also known as DEVGRU or SEAL Team Six). The operation, code-named Operation Neptune Spear, was carried out in a Central Intelligence Agency-led operation. In addition to DEVGRU, participating units included the U.S. Army Special Operations Command‘s 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment (Airborne) and CIA operatives.[3][4] The raid on bin Laden’s compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan, was launched fromAfghanistan.[5] After the raid, U.S. forces took bin Laden’s body to Afghanistan for identification, then buried it at sea within 24 hours of his death, in accordance with Islamic tradition.[6] The United States had direct evidence that Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) chief, Lt. Gen. Ahmad Shuja Pasha, knew of bin Laden’s presence in Abbottabad, Pakistan.[7]
