There appears to be a lack of a kicker, save a mesoscale boundary, and a mid level temperature inversion for today. The upside is that tomorrow's potential probably kicks up a notch if the instability isn't turned over today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dailylurker Posted July 16, 2024 Share Posted July 16, 2024 Getting some clouds here thankfully. It's probably a sea breeze off the bay. I'm ok with not getting much hotter. I don't need my cannabis plants getting fried any more than they already are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've blown by the convective temp of 93 degrees per the 12z IAD balloon. Yet the cumulus field is just now struggling to bubble up. There has to be a cap or something.

CAPE Posted July 16, 2024 Share Posted July 16, 2024 97 at home approaching 130 EDT. Hottest temp of the summer by a degree so far. Might make a run at 100 which would be the hottest I have ever recorded here- that said my station gets sun soaked for a time early to mid afternoon so I usually go with the period from around 3pm onward for the actual high when it is back in the shade. Hopefully I remember to check it but I have lots of nice local beers to drink and I am off to a good start so we shall see. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Pixee Posted July 16, 2024 Share Posted July 16, 2024 shizzle, baby. May as well save money and cook meals on the sidewalk. I've got plenty of foil and seasoning. They don't call 'em lazy, hazy days of summer for nothing. It's so hot the forecasters can't even keep up...on channel 7 screen says 100 and the forecaster is showing 96 on his map.

CAPE Posted July 16, 2024 Share Posted July 16, 2024 H5 is not overly impressive for big heat but lower levels reveal west/sw wind with downsloping/compressional heating, plus it is mid July and ofc that other thing we really shouldn't mention here. We cook so easily anymore. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's legit heat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted July 16, 2024 Share Posted July 16, 2024 I cannot say strongly enough how happy I am to be missing this. Fun to monitor from afar. Going to take a long walk in a bit with a hell of a buzz and will probably wear a light jacket. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MN Transplant Posted July 16, 2024 Share Posted July 16, 2024 First ever 101 on my station. Even on the crazy 106 IAD/105 DCA day in 2012 I didn’t make it. The drought makes all the difference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
