Lots of cloud cover inhibited convection, and only at 4 pm a cell came over us. Non-severe. Decent downpour knocked temps back to low 80s. Drove back to ashburn at 5 pm, temps shot back up to 92 and sunny. It’s hot out. And dry as a bone. Yeah, the temps/DP have been impressive today. Currently 89/73, blue skies and a beautiful breeze. I'll take it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickinBaltimore Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 Think there has been 3 or 4 torrential downpours in the past hour. Lasts maybe 3-5 minutes but a ton of rain falls and then just stops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Officially 87/76 at DCA Got an 80F dewpoint right before the brief shower, and afterwards I was at 83/81 for a bit. You could definitely cut the air with a knife.

Yesterday was one of those days where not everyone gets a storm, but if you get under one you're in trouble. Ridiculous CAPE and modest shear plus a bay breeze boundary or two = wet microburst potential. Honestly surprised there wasn't a tornado watch further northeast in PA. Some of the pictures coming out of there are rather impressive. Site build homes from the 70s with total failure of rooves and brick walls.

87storms Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 Morning clouds with no rain followed by afternoon clear skies and searing heat, and all the clouds and storms north of Winchester and points east. Carbon copy of yesterday. I’ll call that dmv searing heat and raise you Las Vegas. Toasty out here today. Currently around 110/40 across the area. It’s prob the equivalent of 95/70 (maybe more). Gotta really hike/bike, etc. in the early morning or later in the day when it gets like this. Went on a mini hike at 10am and it was already starting to get spicy out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
