OHSnow Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 It's even up to 82-83 up at Davis, WV. That's about as hot as it gets up there. Yeah, that is pretty impressive! I was checking some of the readings from the higher elevations. Bluefield (WV) Mercer County Airport, at nearly 3000', reached 90 today. It rarely gets above 90 there -- last summer had several, but the majority of summers seem to top out in the high 80s. This was the earliest occurrence of 90+ on record. In fact, the previous earliest 90+ reading wasn't until June 18! Records at the airport there date to the late 50s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BethesdaWX Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 According to the Davis VP, High was 98.2 with a suspicious 110 degree heat index reading. The station is in the shade though.

MN Transplant Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Evidently the Davis VP's have a high DP bias. Mine topped out at 78 just before noon. Am wondering if my lawn location near a garden is helping that too. And just like the hot days last summer, DCA was exactly 5 degrees warmer than my yard.

Am wondering if my lawn location near a garden is helping that too. And just like the hot days last summer, DCA was exactly 5 degrees warmer than my yard. I had that problem with the Davis VP2. After calibrating it with a second hygrometer, I found that I had to offset the RH by adjusting it down about 12% in the summer and it's seemed pretty accurate since then. My station is in the center of a large (4 acre) lawn with corn fields all around. 92 here for the high for the second day in a row. HI briefly reached 101.

Am wondering if my lawn location near a garden is helping that too. And just like the hot days last summer, DCA was exactly 5 degrees warmer than my yard. Mine seems to read 1 or 2 higher on the DP too, but I attribute that to the lawn and nearby trees, and is reality at my location. My DP also fluctuates like a heart beat monitor +/- 3-5 degrees during the day. I have the fan in my unit too. I just checked and all the PWS's in my area have the same DP as mine or within 1 degree. Most of them are Davis stations so I don't know. My highest reading today was 93.5, with a heat index of 107. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the Bluefield Chamber of Commerce gives out free lemonade whenever the temp hits 90 or above. I wonder if they were ready for it today....
