jnis Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 It doesn't look like there will be much to discuss over then next few days except good weather lol. What a nice morning - crisp blue sky and low humidity. A great day for biking on the C&O canal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dailylurker Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Super nice day. When I went to bed last night it was nasty and muggy out. Woke up to crisp blue skies (sky's lol) and low humidity. Hopefully we can get the tropics interesting here soon. I'm getting in the mood for some tropical fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2O Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 is this week going to be a battle of haves and have nots? Seems like some might cash in with rain while others are dry as a bone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 August is the worst weather month and the dummies painting the field in Canton blew our first glimpse at the NFL season. Wake me up when a cat 5 rolls up the bay or when the first freeze contest thread is posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inverted_Trough Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Looks like DCA has gone back to its old self: having readings a few degrees higher than all airports within a 200 nm radius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxdude64 Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Raining just a hair to hard to go for a walk/hike at the moment, but man, these mid 60's temps in afternoon are WONDERFUL for August! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sitting at 66.4 with rain falling. High was 69.1 around noon before it started raining again. EDIT-and I just looked, it is 60 up at airport in Hot Springs and 56 at Snowshoe!

We are finally getting some impact of the rain down south with the clouds and now an apparent outflow boundary. Down to 82, but dry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Balti Zen Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Looking at radar, ended up being a pretty rainy day between Richmond and DC - draw a line west to east and the rain just trained along that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at PWS is fun for us weather enthusiasts, but they're really not comparable. Looks like the high at DCA was 92. BWI was 89, IAD was 88. So the anomaly continues. Just something interesting that I've noticed recently, is all. It certainly could have a benign explanation. But I don't think they deserve the benefit of the doubt down there -- they've done nothing to earn it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellinwood Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Highs in D.C. today from all the WeatherBug stations. (ignore the highs from the METAR sites... this particular software doesn't grab the 6-hour highs) Multiple stations around DCA as high as 93-94. I don't know why some people are so obsessed with comparing DCA to IAD and BWI. Last time I checked, IAD and BWI weren't right on a river and next to a huge urban sprawl.

Eskimo Joe Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 So far the forecasts of a blow torch summer are a fail. I guess after this weekend, it's going to be very hard to torch with the shortening days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are on pace for the summer to be the next tier down from the historic 1980 & 2010-12 summers. Pretty damn torchy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
