MN Transplant Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 80 on the obs at DCA. Might have snuck into the 70s.78.0 for the low on my station. I'll confirm later, but that has to be one of my highest lows in the three summers of readings. edit - only one day last year and the "sweat ceiling" period in 2011 had higher lows on my VP2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snownut Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Yeah it is summer which I do not like, nothing unusual about this "heat" wave, it actually seems like typical summer time around here. Besides the humidity what really bothers me the most are the warm nights. If it could just get into the 50's most nights then windows open and early morning outdoors would be fine. Hit 96.2 yesterday, expecting 97+ today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hit 96.2 yesterday, expecting 97+ today. It's been hotter around these parts before, but I'm not sure I recall the humidity ever being this bad for this long. I can't remember when the DP was last under 70F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clueless Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Just a few more days until this breaks. Epic? To me it is just another summer in DC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember when the DP was last under 70F. Only time I want to be in DP's this warm is when I am on a Carribean/ tropical beach with an adult beverage surrounded by lovely ladies with little or no clothing... Then it is tolerable... I will be in lots of 40 DP's next week when we vacation and shop for a vacation property out west,... can't wait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowfan Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Washed over in clouds here. Went out to get the mail a bit ago and its not too bad outside. OT - today is a BGE energy savings day. The last one was last week while we were out of town on vacation. Received a credit of $19.25 because we used so little energy last Wednesday.
