pazzo83 Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 DC at 87F at 10pm looks to be the hottest temp on the east coast right now (I'm not counting Key West (88F) because they are surrounded by hot tub water rn) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone know what happened to them, not that i am missing them. feel like they show up more in August 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pazzo83 Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 it's nice that the Metro stations all have A/C so you don't come close to death waiting on the platform, but man tonight you feel it stepping out onto the street. In NY even on the hottest nights there was a slight relief walking out of a subway station because the station temps would be well over 100F. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastCoast NPZ Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 WTF is it CVA is ground zero for every GD thunderstorm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrinceFrederickWx Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Still 82 here… The trend I keep noticing in this region in recent years is that we just don’t cool off at night anymore. That’s how BWI got hottest month ever in July 2020 despite no record highs. Same idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live in Waynesboro, prior to tonight only .17 in about 10 days - but work in Charlottesville and its a dam deluge somewhere in or around that city at least 4 days a week..

I think part of that is the expansion of the UHI, but part of it is that our summer nights are becoming more humid. To our south, overnight lows in the 70s are routine even in rural areas bc the dewpoint stays above 70. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dailylurker Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 I'm not sure if it's my elevation or what but here in Carroll County I haven't felt swamp dewpoints like where I grew up near Annopoils. This morning is beautiful with blue sky and relatively low humidity. No dew on my huge cannabis plants.. I mean tomatoes. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though...they do seem to do well once storms are already formed. the problem is....in this DC/Baltimore area - this typically is a 1-3 hour window and by the time the models fully "see" the real picture - the storms are either overhead or even east of us already It's often a case where our jokes like "It will get it right 2 days after the storm" kind of are correct. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormfly Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 I knew we would be paying for those wonderful days in May and June. Now it's just getting yucky out. Can we just hit the FF button to jump to mid October already? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSSN+ Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Have only seen 1.8” of rain here since June 1st. It’s incredibly dry. Currently in the severe drough area on the drought monitor. Every time there’s rain or storms it goes right around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattie g Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Lots of complaints about a day or two with highs in the 90s. Folks are getting spoiled by the lack of big heat, which is a pretty common thing around here in the summer. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure. But no sign of any persistent mid-upper 90s kinda Bermuda high. If we can get through mid-august without that, climatology starts working in our favor. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no way in hell we escape a summer without heat at some point, but to keep from going 98/77 or worse for an extended period is a win. Of course, we can get well into the 90s in September, but that's usually short-lived and a drier stuff than the soup we can get in the summer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87storms Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 I’m personally enjoying the feeling of typical dmv summer. Then again, part of that is because it makes for ideal basketball weather. For biking, I do generally prefer 60-80 and drier. My biggest gripe is that the cooler air masses tend to result in more clouds around here and a thorny nw breeze.Obs…seeing some storms to the west, but tbd on how well they hold together with several ridges to pass en route to the rt15 corridor.
