wxmeddler Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 looks warm Looked the records up for BWI (FDK doesn't keep records). that would tie a record for the 8th and break a record for the 9th. The 97°F record on the 9th was set in 1933. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 JYO/FDK get a lot of **** but they are always hotter on MOS numbers so I think there is something to their numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxUSAF Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 100F with a 66F dewpoint. Chewy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know about JYO, but I think FDK being a warm spot is legit. They sit in a topographic bowl, so you get compressional heating as well as downsloping winds. FDK is often colder in winter for as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deck Pic Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 If you are teaching someone about DC climo, I would start with 3 things 1) Every summer is hot and there is no such thing as a below normal summer 2) It doesn't snow in March 3) It snows on December 5th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like there are some 800-900 feet ridges just west of town, while the airport sits at 300 feet. Could definitely add a couple of degrees of compressional warming with the west winds that predominate during heat waves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellinwood Posted June 7, 2011 Author Share Posted June 7, 2011 Squeaker. Balances out the 89s. The sad part is Thursday's potential 100 falls on the same date that we set the MONTHLY record of 102 in the way back-back-back-it's-outta-here!!! year of 1874. For s'n'gs, the record high minimum for Thursday is 77 from our favorite year of 2008. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just something makes me a little "nervous" for clouds on Thursday. Could be wrong, and anyway my guesses are only a degree apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WVclimo Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 A hazy, muggy high of 81 here today. DCA hit 90, which is a pretty big spread between here and there in early summer. Morning low was a nice 56, but it sure won't be as pleasant the next couple of mornings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxUSAF Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 Slight risk a bit closer to us tomorrow. 5% probabilistic for severe basically runs just north of 95. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master of Disaster Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 Hosting the US Open (Golf) at Congressional beginning Monday. Hoping the weather cooperates. Just reviewed the evacuation plan for the 55,000 expected per day. Ehhh, I didn't draft it and it leaves some things to be desired. Anyone pick up tickets?
