Mowed the lawn at 730am. Was cloudy and breezy so not so bad. Haven't mowed for two weeks...may be the last time in a while lol.

Yeah, we are gonna bake today.

EPA regs and the decline of coal power are huge. I also think, but haven't seen good quantification yet (please link me if you have it) that we're really benefitting from two additional things in this decade. One, the rapidly increasing share of solar and other renewable power. Two, increasing share of hybrids and EVs in the aggregate vehicle fleet. Hopefully we can eventually clean up all the small engine crap out there too. I was born in the 80s and remember the 90s-early 00s haze and hope we never go back!

93F at my nearest weatherbug, and certainly feels that way in the full sun. DP of 68 and humidity at 49%, which imo makes being in the shade still nice if there's a slight breeze. Seems like the breeze is dying though. Neighborhood parks/ball fields are scorched and crunchy. Forests will start to droop and lose leaves if this continues, too.

A pleasant evening watching the fireflies, who enjoy this heat apparently, in my backyard in silver spring. The humidity is totally fine. About 80 degrees at 9pm.
-
I believe it - just got home after being gone for 120 hours and the brown-out of the lawn is quite noticeable in my sunnier spots. It's dry and crispy out there.

The weather has been stupendously nice on the lower Jersey shore the past few days. Unfortunately, headed home tomorrow.
-
The heat in the UHI is legit. You will not find it to be cool on most july-august mornings, special once the sun is up. 10 degrees warmer than the hinterland counties by 8am easily
-
Enjoy the green now. Never gonna rain again
-
Goodness the humidity is oppressive.
-
Indeed. Here are daily production numbers for each month. May 4 - 18 was a terrible stretch; basically only one sunny day.
-
Ended up barely squeaking by April production thanks to a couple sunny days at the end of the month. First year, so no comparisons. But 919 in April versus 970 in May.

Looks like you're right for those of us around the top quadrant of the beltway
-
Impressive lightning and debris clouds before a 10 min downpour in Silver Spring just inside the beltway.

We must have similar size systems. I hit 919 in April; 502 thus far in May.
-
Yes, my May production has been awful! It may come in below March :-(
-
i appreciate sunny days in january and february, but I would gladly trade those for some sun now.
-
Ugh. We have similar deal Saturday - community event that has been planned since the fall. Need it to be dry
-
Some actual light rain inside the beltway in silver spring now, after a misty morning.
-
I remember unbelievable amounts of rain falling that summer. Downpours like we were in Malaysia or something. The humidity today is nuts
-
Enjoy the sun this morning -- looks like a cloudy stretch of days ahead.
