Even when DCA/BWI/IAD were hitting 104-106 the last two years, mine has barely touched 100. I figure 101 or 102 is the max my yard/elevation can get to. Only need a few more degrees.

I think it's trees. My neighborhood is quited wooded. Yours is too right?

Alot of shade at the surface prob prevents maxing out pretty easily. I would love to put a remote thermo on top of my tallest tulip poplar. It would be interesting to get readings 60' up.

1730 SPC Day 2 still 30% slight... states better frontal convergnce may result in a more concentrated severe potential across VA/Delmarva portion of 30% risk area

Won't be a moderate I don't think. Maybe a high end slight.

Yeah that was the part that peaked my interest yoder

Probably will be a decent severe event but not like the derecho. I stand to be corrected possibly.

If yours are like my backyard, the trees, grass and vegetation make the DP much higher than the official. I think that keeps the air temp a little lower maybe. I'm running about 8 degrees higher on DP.

Hardly a breeze in area...seems we had more mixing on 6/29.

Maybe a mdt somewhere, I think a pretty good event, some places will get hit hard. Hard to get conditions like the derecho twice in a week, but a moderate I feel like will be somewhere, and if not tonight a judgement call at game time tomorrow. Ill look at some params and models tonight and see if I have to change my viewpoint.

we are going to put up a 104/82 which will tie our hottest day on record and nobody really cares

I would have cared more earlier in the week when I had no power. Now I think it interesting and sad but I guess if it is going to be over 100 I'd prefer a record to a run of the mill 100 plus day.

I guess. Moderates are really tough to get, though. I think a slight with 30% wind and hatching might be the way to go for this event. Plus...slight is a good bet now since you are usually bullish ;)

If dca is at 104, i cant see any less than 106 for a high.

the only real factor is the clouds i think. otherwise we're positioned.

104? Wow... wonder if we make a run at 107... still have 3 hrs or so of heating left

the clouds are gonna screw us and get us stuck at 104/105 :(
