I did make this super graphic I expected that DCA max number to be higher. That looks pretty certain to fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're all Jul 2011 and also the max of all months. 23 in Aug 2016 as well. We torch well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going with a warm July/August in these parts anymore seems like the persistence/climo forecast. It's a virtual lock. Wonder if we're 60 or 70 on Christmas this year.

Good surface Cape and very moist Pwats in these same areas . Very sharp cutoff towards the M/D line though with dry west flow . Mby looks unlikely to see anything. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlizzardNole Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Wow nice rainbow pic! That shower disintegrated a it passed by to the north, but it temporarily sucked some heat out of the air making for a nice cookout earlier. It's HOT again and I am sweating bullets after only watering the garden beds. Hoping for a lucky t-storm tomorrow. A sultry 88 degrees coming up on 9 PM.

Herb@MAWS Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 97 imby today, slightly warmer than my warmest day all last summer. And at 9:30, still a muggy, uncomfortable 88.2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subtropics Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Looking into August, 90+ the rest of the way. At this point, is DC's average July temperature really 87-89? I find it hard to believe. I think the argument can be made the "heat streak" we had this month is honestly average dc July weather at this point with highs in the low 90s with lows in the low to mid 70s. Could have destroyed the streak with 30+ 90 straight days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subtropics Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Put another way, sure seems "easier" for DC to go above climo in the low to mid/upper 90s than to go similar departure below climo for a streak of low to mid 80s in July. Imagine a streak in July of 20-30 days <90? Doesn't seem possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they start to trickle out in spring or so been a while. I am curious if DC will get 90s for a portion of days. I could see it not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midatlanticweather Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Pretty interesting night for temps. Just after 2am I hit a low of 75. We then had some westerly winds kick in an this raised temperatures to 84 degrees at about 4:30 am. The winds have calmed and Temps are falling again as I am sitting at 80. Pretty wild. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herb@MAWS Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Pretty warm morning IMBY. Briefly dipped below 80 overnite (79.7) but awoke 5:30am to 80.5. Still time to drop just below 80 again before sunrise. Don't see too many mornings in this 'burb hanging around 80. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knocked out our internet till well into the night. While the temp dropped 10 deg, humidity did not drop and it felt like a sauna the rest of the evening. But I don’t have to water my plants today.
