Not a reach to say that 100 is off the table. Missing the record (98) would be rough. Still think we get it.

Looks like 36.7 6 hr high

We could rebound but I wouldn't bet on it

Until you go back and look at it, you can almost push out of your memory how awful the end of July was last year.

7/19/11 to 8/2/11

10/15 days 97 or above at DCA

4 100° days

7 days with 80°+ lows

the 80+ lows thing might have been the most incredible.. blew past records on that out of the water. tho i suppose it's going to be more common moving forward.

The Low last night was 78 at DCA, which is right with the records this time of year.. Theres some HIMIN's in July that are 83-84 set last year... and just for seasonal comparison on June 27 of 1952 the low was 80.

In that regard, it's interesting to compare July 1930 with July 2011 in DC:

July 1930: Average maximum 91.6, Average minimum 69.3, six 100+ days, one 80+ minimum

July 2011: Average maximum 93.6, Average minimum 75.4, three 100+ days, seven 80+ minimums

I was talking overall numbers (7 total -- with a stretch of 4 that alone tied the previous record for a yr). 80+ nightime lows are arguably dictated more by the heat island than highs but they've gone from fairly rare to seemingly common in the last few yrs/decades.
