Pouring near the Vienna Metro station. Waiting in a tunnel for the rain to slack off so I can finish my walk home without having to put all my clothes in the dryer immediately.

Still overcast in Fairfax City. DPs are back up into the ridiculous range.

I certainly don't care for a solid week in midsummer with maybe one hour of sun per day if you're lucky. And the humidity needs to start decreasing!

Dewpoint down a couple of ticks, nice breeze, it actually feels fairly pleasant this morning.

A day when you need the air conditioning even though it's 73. Humidity just gradually saps the will to live.

My neighborhood looks to be safe from storms for another day.

Murky and muggy. A 2/10 or 1/10 day, depending on whether a storm hits while I'm walking home.

Feels downright pleasant right now compared to yesterday. Turned the AC off at 9 p.m. and the residual cool air means it's still just 80 in the hallway.

Nothing but some light rain last night in Vienna. Overcast sky.

Smoke on the water . . .

Yeah, almost every time an article from The Guardian appeared in my feed, it was "Climate catastrophe!! World ending, everyone's gonna die!!" I guess they're some of the folks pushing for "degrowth". I had to block them, because I'm damn sick and tired of seeing nothing but bad news, all day, every day.

IAD back down to 97. Guess we won't get triple digits today. And I don't see a single cloud out the window of Caboose Mosaic.

IAD as always the laggard, still 97

88/73 at 8:30 a.m. Stone the crows.

Even at the mouth of the Amazon, nights never get this hot!! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belém#Geography note that temp averages year-round are just "normal DC July".
