Ian Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 Bob Ryan tweeted 20 minutes ago that DCA hit 104. i think they have a contact that can give them highs. i've seen them report stuff early before that wasnt on any obs. seems high given recent obs but maybe not.

Bob Chill Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 106 on the car thermo today and that was after driving around for a bit. I know that car thermos usually read higher than reality but that is the hottest reading I've ever seen since I bought the car 11 years ago. No matter which way you slice it.......it was damn hot today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Much lower IMBY only 94 for a high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastCoast NPZ Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 100 for the high today here. The first day in some time when we weren't actually hotter than the airports, and where we weren't 5-6 degrees hotter than forecast. A moral victory I guess.....

Ellinwood Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Low temp heat wave DCA has not gotten to 75 or below since July 18th... if my mental math is correct, when we hit 7pm today it will be the 300th consecutive hour with readings above 75.

Still a mind-numbing feat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
