Water is the enemy.

dew point records are tricky to come by tho worth looking into
-
One time of year some extra clouds and a little east wind isn't the worst. Altho the forecast isn't looking too great.
-
I thought about pulling an all nighter but it's unfrozen snow lol
-
put this in the wrong thread earlier I guess... impressive

No 80 low would be a bummer. This month does seem poised to break the record for the warmest minimum of the month at DCA tho. Currently 71 degrees, old record is 67.

We're due for a year when summer ends early. I seriously doubt this is it but still.

lol I forgot he was here. I was thinking of convening a meeting of the pee tape committee.

Last night I found out I know (been a long time) the main source for the pee tape dossier. loling that they used him as a source.

Got day 26 90+. Looks like we are destined for 28, which is a solid gain on the old record of 25 in 2011. Will be a tough one to beat... at least a couple years maybe. Avg high temp second hottest on record behind 2011 to date. Looks like it'll be a photo finish for second on the overall average. So much for the heat being lame.

yeah it's about now I start pining for fall.

All the heat addicts must be doing work. Congrats on Day 25 90+ in July all! Tomorrow we become truly elite. https://www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2020/07/27/washington-dc-july-record-heat/

up to 93. torch!

Yeah I lived there for a few years as a teen. The subtropical ridge extensions tend to set up shop over that region so it often is cloudless during peak heat season. a good recipe to fry grass etc. Our climate is generally wet year round in comparison, but late summer/early fall in particular can be quite dry. It's not unusual historically but the frequency/intensity does seem to be on the increase.
-
yeah it's rather common at some point from mid-summer to early fall or so. seems moreso lately tho.
-
DCA up past 6" now on the month. Funny since half of the grass here is burnt to a crisp.
-
We do have some room although have not tested what would bring it below 2010. NBM is 83.6, which is down 0.2 from last night. 90 deg today would make me more comfortable on the count win. My gut says we will get it.
-
In classic DC fashion the monthly 90-degree record of 25 no longer looks like a simple victory.

Blobfest inbound ... the loudoun storm looking decent
-
why warn the best storms when you can warn all the storms
-
hard to say at this point. after the slow start, we're basically neck and neck with last year, which was "close" but still a struggle from reaching it. ensembles have moved a bit toward a relaxation late month/early aug, which was initially advertised on the weeklies but now the weeklies have minimal relax. the pattern has been quite stable and I think we prob favor more ridging into late summer/early fall.
