Only 96/102 so far

Nice 4th up here in Wilton,Maine. 85 and mostly sunny.

Hey Ryan... If you have a minute text me the link to that product?

Did that here earlier, but luckily it was a quick blip. Had to reset all the clocks etc which is annoying. Hopefully it isnt out for long there.

DCA hits 100 again

FYI, I have discovered two other days where DCA also recorded an average temperature of 93.0. Those are July 6, 1999, with a maximum of 103 and a minimum of 83; and July 23, 2011, which was the same as yesterday -- maximum of 102 and a minimum of 84.

Sunshine, mid 60’s, cool northerly breeze. Not a bad 4th. Had my taste of heat and bagged a 90, I’m good.

Power just went out here

June set new all-time SST records in all Nino regions except 1+2. https://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/data/indices/ersst5.nino.mth.91-20.ascii All-Time June SST records in bold YR MON NINO1+2 ANOM NINO3 ANOM NINO4 ANOM NINO3.4 ANOM 2026 6 25.94 2.82 28.33 1.71 30.19 1.22 29.17 1.44 2023 6 25.63 2.50 27.88 1.26 29.55 0.58 28.57 0.84 2015 6 25.32 2.19 28.07 1.45 29.88 0.92 28.90 1.18 1997 6 26.12 3.00 28.13 1.51 29.23 0.26 28.82 1.09

92.4F nowhere near 100 for me today

Federalsburg mesonet site hits 100°

Andrew's AFB (ADW) hits 100°

Not much different from the past few days 95/69 currently.... Happy Independence Day!

93/71/100 at Farmingdale. 92 here. A bit sticky

96 at noon. KMdT is at 95.

Geez... from the 1125am LWX updated discussion Unlike previous days which were free of convection, a collapsing ridge will lift the subsidence that has persisted the last few days. This subsidence is evident in two levels in the 12Z KIAD RAOB - 900-800 mb, and 575-525 mb (the latter of which is more stout than forecast most forecast soundings have). Although mid/upper heights remain anomalously high, forcing from an approaching shortwave will aid in more widespread showers and thunderstorms. One unique aspect to the thermodynamic environment is an elevated mixed layer (EML) which has shown up in the last 5 IAD sounding profiles (9.3 C/km this morning 780-570 mb). This is unusually steep for this area. This is contributing to some impressively large amounts of instability, generally 2,000 to 4,000 J/kg MUCAPE as of 12Z objective mesoanalysis. Within the deeply mixed boundary layer, substantial downdraft CAPE (DCAPE) is evident with values around 1,300 to 1,700 J/kg. Although vertical shear is only around 20 to 25 knots, any storms able to tap into the robust instability will be capable of damaging winds. Some of this could be locally considerable with gusts up to 70 mph. With all of the above in mind, and ample high-resolution model support, the Storm Prediction Center has upgraded areas east of the Blue Ridge to an Enhanced Risk today. This upgrade would support a more widespread footprint of severe thunderstorms this afternoon and evening. Looking a bit more closely at today`s setup, convective initiation likely will be more mesoscale in nature. This would include the climatological lee-side trough, bay and river breezes, as well as any remnant outflows from earlier convection. Multiple rounds of thunderstorms are possible given so much instability in the troposphere. The primary signal east of the Blue Ridge is in the 3-9 PM timeframe, slightly earlier to the west. Damaging winds are the main threat, with even a small chance for large hail given steep lapse rates and large CAPE (though high freezing levels and modest shear will offset this risk). Although the convective signal is strongest during the afternoon to early evening hours, residual storms could easily impact those with outdoor plans for fireworks this evening. Continue to check back at weather.gov/lwx or follow the National Weather Service - Baltimore/Washington social media accounts for the latest.

98/68 dp at 12:13pm no clouds I'll let y'all do the math at this point.

Yes CIG1 for wind introduced along i95 corridor from DC metro into PHL

Hatched now too on the wind. 16m population under cig 1 on 4th of July. Explosive.

I thought this whole thread was a fallacy! Lol

5% hail introduced on 1630z OTLK from Roanoke VA to DC metro

Models seem to offer hope for major mid and late July cooldown

its not too bad if you are sitting drinking water but once you start walking around it feels like a sauna - no messages yet from SPC about any possible watches as of noon - also yesterday the temp here dropped from 102 to 72 after the storm - expect something similar today later - yeterday"s Watch was released at 3:25 PM

The lower dew points give me pause for sure, but I feel better seeing that even the HRRR, which overmixes the crap out of our area this afternoon, initiates a modest coverage of storms locally.

Please don’t rain
