DCA is all I care about....IAD and BWI are unlikely to match or exceed last July.....DCA 105-106 or else I am disappointed

Also we need 93.5 to set all time highest average temp....so 105/82, 104/83, 103/84 would do it....85 would be a record max min....107/85 would set all 3 and would probably stand for at least 2-3 weeks before it was broken

lol.. well the saturday records will have been around a whole two years before they're broken (if they're broken).

How did MET/MAV perform in the previous couple heat waves there? I remember MN_Trans saying that the NAM did pretty well (so I assume MET was decent). I
Both have been atrocious up here going way too warm, but in the core of the heat dome it can be a different story.

MET has DCA at 103F and MAV at 100F...12z and 18z number respectively though, as the new 00z MET should be out fairly soon.

the nam/met was better last friday than the gfs but was still cool by maybe 2 degrees 24 hours out. i think i've generally been leaning on the nam short term lately. actually my method for my first temp prediction can be found by checking 12z data and reading my first sentence. :P

I'm sure this winter we will be challenging our all time low temp of -15

Is the NAM like the Pittsburgh Pirates?...Sucked for 20 years and is having a good spring and summer before it completely falls apart after the AS Break, trades all its good players and calls up minor leaguers in September just in time for winter

The last record low I can see for DCA in the months of DJFM is 1/19/94. That is a long time.
