RodneyS Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 In 2009, we hit 92 in late April at DCA (brutal for those of us in apartments with the heat still on) and then it didn't make it above that until July 16th. And in 2004 DCA never exceeded 92, even in July and August. There were only eleven 90+ days that year, the first of which was April 19th and the last of which was August 4th. July had two 90-degree days and two 92-degree days, and that was it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I moved to town on August 5th of that year. Little did I know that the pleasant August was a fluke! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope a volcano blankets the atmosphere with enough SO2 to give us a year without a summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxUSAF Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 On a more comfortable note, 12z Euro and GFS both have temps below normal/well below normal next Tuesday/Wednesday with the big trough over New England/southern Ontario underneath the big -NAO ridge.

Bob Chill Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 AC is broken in my wife's car so I took one for the team and drove it today. Sat on the betlway for almost an hour around noon. I'm not a doctor or anything but I'm pretty sure when I started seeing in black and white and hearing voices I should have been concerned. I'm considering bringing a bottle of water with me when I drive in tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MN Transplant Posted June 20, 2012 Author Share Posted June 20, 2012 100 @ Inner Harbor. Looks like my high will be 92.8, which fits in well with the 98 at DCA (they were often +5 from me last summer). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate that reading and that station. UHI plays a huge role there. It is always going to be warmer there than other stations. for some reason it irks me.

Disc Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Work is gonna be a killer tomorrow. Why will it be a killer? I work in a greenhouse on and off and tomorrow was one of my lucky days to work. Officially reached 92 today and the greenhouse temps were in the 100's. Hate to see what tomorrow holds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
