So Yesterday was +8.33% with 156 Blocks, however Today is off to a slowish start which has pulled the Period to Date Run Rate just into negative territory, so we may be seeing the first signs of a switch off?

@TheYankeesWin
I think the rates may drop over time but not just yet.
Maybe :
July 18 to Aug 1 will be -5%
Aug 1 to Aug 15 will be -4%
Aug 15 to Aug 29 will be -4%
Aug 29 to Sept 12 will be -4%
Then we will go up in diff rates.
I also think in the fall rate will begin to rise.

I think it will take weeks for the effects of the halving to actually observed or felt. I don't have a particular reason to think that folks would just "switch off" hardware when block 420,000 rolled around. Those folks would most likely have been selling their hardware, as I should have done. Anybody that recently bought hardware was planning on running it and is unlikely to change their mind quickly.
As always I think that difficulty changes will follow in the direction of BTC price. For most folks, BTC price is THE key driver in their decisions. Obviously electricity price is important, but that's a pretty stable and predictable value, whereas BTC price is not.
Interesting to follow the next couple of months.

Exactly this.
Here is an example of a s-7 user that has 10.5 cent power. He or she has just this machine. I would be willing to say they will run it for a month or so since it is not losing much money for the month.

So the halving has been and gone without any great drama. Except........ that Yesterday was +4.86% with 151 Blocks and the Run Rate Today, could just be variance, is currently at a very frisky +20%. Period to Date Run Rate is now just into positive territory at +0.41%.
So if there was any powering down of old gear it has been more than compensated for by new gear being switched on.

So Today is the Day 
about 8 Hours to go. Yesterday was pretty standard with 145 Blocks and for the last 24 Hrs Period to Date Run Rate has been in a band -1% to -2%.
Sort of expect something dramatic to happen at block 420000 with a mass throwing of breakers, but it will probably pass quietly?

I expect that most folks on here look at bitcoinwisdom on a regular basis like I do. Just for grins, I would suggest that you click on the "Litecoin Difficulty" link at the top of the page. The resulting graph is just breathtaking (IMHO).
I absolutely don't want hijack this thread, so please don't worry about responding to this comment on my part.

Ain't it grand when you "find" something nice like that?
This parallels my story with LTC. I mined BTC and LTC for a short while back in early 2012. I mined and slurped from faucets about 0.07BTC and some of it helped pay for a @sidehack modded S7-LN. The LTC, however totaled a bit over 7k coins. When I remembered that I had some, and then checked the price it was a bit over $4.00/LTC, and so I sold it in chunks all the way up to almost $6.00/LTC. Some of the proceeds paid some bills, some bought ETH, some bought BTC which then paid for the S7LN, and I still have some LTC.
Some days you're the bug, some days you're windshield.
Cheers,
