DCA high yesterday (8/31) was 91 degrees... pretty sure we have reached 50 90 degree days at DCA this summer, yes?

Yes... the GFS decided that tonight in its run to do that...

Eskimo Joe's last 2 posts made me think of this gif

This storm won't be as bad as Sandy was per one special poster

Good morning

How's that 1938 hurricane similarity coming along? You know, the one that was going to crush you in NJ? Hope you are safe

Nice moderate rain here right now... @mattie g should be pleased

Looks like that won't happen... getting dark here... looks like the line will make it through here... which is basically I95 corridor

Hot take right here

Why is there a rotation marker in Loudoun County on radarscope?

A page over arguing the HWRF in the main thread

Been raining most of the day here though

So how much rain did you get?

I don't see anything on USGS

Radar suggests that we continue for a while with the band as more rain moves in from our west and southwest... few more hours would be nice of this

It's not 1 to 2 inches... but should be in the .50 to 1.00 range

Nothing apparently... ban is just for IIHF only... but 4 years is steep

@mattie g should like today so far... been raining the past couple of hours at a decent clip

Wait, I thought it was a desert out there

Lol a 372 hour GooFus map... you had to go that far for your HHH... guess there's not any before then then

DCA reached 95 today... how many days this year is that? I am guessing DCA has about 10 days of 95+ this summer?
