MN Transplant Posted July 23, 2012 Author Share Posted July 23, 2012 Updated. Need to average about a 95/75 for the last 9 days of the month. Probably not going to happen. 2nd place very much in play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastCoast NPZ Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 14 of the 26 days so far this month are 95+ at DCA. That is unreal. Thank goodness it hasn't been that bad out here this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MN Transplant Posted July 30, 2012 Author Share Posted July 30, 2012 Cruise control into 2nd place. Looking like 83.9 or so. Well above 2010's 83.1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deck Pic Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Cruise control into 2nd place. Looking like 83.9 or so. Well above 2010's 83.1. Our norms are pretty silly probably. I understand norms are over 30 years and smoothed but they aren't very relevant. Almost of of July should be 90/72 with a 10-15 day period of 91/73. I think we've hit 71 or lower like 2-3 times in the last 30 days or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

River/UHI/pattern all to blame probably. Easy to say that the normals aren't relevant coming off of a trifecta of the warmest summers on record, though. Tougher to make the case that this is the new norm. I'm hoping this is just a string of suck related to the overall decadal patterns with some GW built on top. '09 wasn't that bad, and even as close as '04 was a really quite pleasant summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodneyS Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 even as close as '04 was a really quite pleasant summer. Newcomers to the DC area will find this fact hard to believe, but after a high of 98 was recorded at DCA on August 19, 2002, there was nearly a three-year gap of 95+ days -- the next one occurred on July 21, 2005, with a reading of 95 on the nose.

MN Transplant Posted August 1, 2012 Author Share Posted August 1, 2012 Wrapup: 84.0° - 2nd warmest month on record 7 100° days - new monthly record 16/31 days at 95° or above Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deck Pic Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 gotta guess it is but hell of a three years With UHI, I think the case can be made that 1872, 1942 and even perhaps 1980 were hotter summers than 2010-2012 I think we can go back to a -2 to -3 summer if we have some game changing shift...persistence is a lot more powerful than people think...weather gathers momentum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 so apparently 1981-2010 90+ day avgs are smoothed as well. how did it take me 2 years to figure that one out? im not sure i get it either. our yrly avg dropped 6 to 31?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 31 for JJA 36.4 for Year That's what I thought but NCDC says otherwise and indicates it's a smoothed norm. The perplexing thing is the old norm wasn't smoothed as far as I can tell. http://t.co/nVqNUj7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
