MN Transplant Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Still 72. Unless we get some sun we might do it. Heck of a battle on the vis satellite. Seems brighter in the last few minutes. 4.5 degree hi/lo range on my station. DCA only 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastCoast NPZ Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Sun and clouds here, mostly clouds now. High 77F (currently 75F). Would love to know when was the last time we had 4 consecutive sub-80F highs in early August. Might even be able to make it #5 tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MN Transplant Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 72. Should have at least tied it if not broken it. Any low records at DCA have been very hard to come by. I think the last is the 71° a year ago in July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinterWxLuvr Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Is that max rounded? If so, that seems a pretty inaccurate way to record a record temp. It also seems that their max is always higher than the highest hourly ob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isohume Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Is that max rounded? If so, that seems a pretty inaccurate way to record a record temp. It also seems that their max is always higher than the highest hourly ob. The hourly METAR temp is the current 5-min avg...while the max temp can be any 5-min avg during an hour. The max temp is stored and reported in the 1 group for the synoptic hours and the 24 hr max is reported in the 4 group at midnight LST. It's not unusual for the hourly to not capture the max or min temp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastCoast NPZ Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 75 / 72 Thank goodness for the clouds; else it would be a horrendous day out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastCoast NPZ Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 it is gross out...summer sucks It's gotten more gross too. Another afternoon of clearing skies has allowed the temp to rocket to 82F. The streak of sub-80s is over at 4, and at this rate we'll be lucky not to top 85F this afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxmeddler Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 The MCS that went through Minneapolis yesterday and Michigan last night is making it's way into eastern OH and into the Pittsburgh area in the next 2 hours. Maybe a gust front around 11 pm? It currently is dropping 1" hail and has a Tornado warning on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see some moving east, some SE... some N or NE (the S PA ones)... movement in all directions That probably means by some miracle DC won't get a drop of rain. They will move exactly the right way to miss us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
