Once again the GFS (6Z) is way too hot in the extended. Even if H5 reaches the near record high upper 590s as it has, highs on July 14-15th will not reach anywhere near as hot as this shows even with the drought:6Z GFS July 14th highs: for example 112 at SAV is loltastic as that’s compared to the 105 all-time hottest on record there back 155 years! 6Z GFS July 15th highs: also not going to happen

That place is in Harrisburg where he works at and runs 24/7 365 days a year and serves the public. My son said they expect less strain on the grid today as a lot of industries are closed today in observance of the 4th.

Low of 79. Hopefully we get some beneficial storms sometime over the next several days. The Sun/Mon period potentially looks fruitful. We are departing for western PA shortly. A happy and safe 4th to all the AmericanWX members! Cheers to the USA!

Celebrating the nation’s birthday like they did in 1911.

Driving from Maine to Mattapoisett yesterday afternoon.....was 93 when I left Waterville. 100-103 from the Mass line to 195 where it quickly dipped to 94. Got to Mattapoisett at about 5:30 and it was 87. Today will be worse. West wind is no bueno.

I noticed the bump up as well this morning. I am a bit surprised by that. Also Falls Lake as expected is in free fall again. It has about 3 feet to drop before reaching the all time record low level.

We'll see in 15 minutes or so whether some all-time records have been tied. ================================================================== *** ALL-TIME RECORD WARM LOWS *** ================================================================== Baltimore 83 (set on Aug 05, 1930 + 2 other times) Washington 84 (set on Jul 24, 2011 + 2 other times) Sterling-Dulles Airport 79 (set on Aug 08, 2007) Baltimore Downtown 88 (set on Jul 22, 2011 and Jul 10, 1993) Annapolis 92 (set on Jul 07, 1994) Hagerstown 86 (set on Jun 15, 1899) Martinsburg 86 (set on Jul 21, 1930) Charlottesville 85 (set on Aug 07, 1918)

I pray it holds up today Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk

A bunch of rain fell just north and west of Cedar Rapids last night into this morning, but it's all crapping out before reaching us. I hope we can get something decent tonight because the next week looks dry again.

DCA’s heat index never dropped below 90 last night.

My point click is now showing a high of 106 tomorrow. I’m. Little skeptical of that

Had a nice power outage here from 2:30-10:30 here in Center Harbor. Sweaty as hell.

From yesterday, my son works at a place where they have the ability to generate their own power for emergencies. He got the call to take their place off the grid, so there is more electric available for the grid. This was done to take some strain off the grid. his text to me: Grid is now at Level 2/3 emergency Got the call to switch to generation

76F/DP 74F at 7:20am

Saw some reports on their FB page

Wow!!!!

This jibes with my response 3 posts above yours to Jeff B.’s implied false connection of the current developing super-Nino to increased very intense heat in the E US based on his Tweet. Only the summer of 1991 was hot overall in the E US as I said, which is essentially agreed with by your lists. I’m referring to Poughkeepsie’s 102 on 7/19/1991. None of the other developing super-Ninos prior to 2026-7 are on any of your 4 lists.

Round 2 in 10 days?

82 for the low at home in Alexandria. 70 for the low at Deep Creek.

Looking at my station data we got all the down to 77 this morning at 5:54 am. Cranking back up though. Currently at 82/76/90.

Only made it down to 87 at my station. Highest minimum I’ve ever had

Even at the mouth of the Amazon, nights never get this hot!! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belém#Geography note that temp averages year-round are just "normal DC July".

My hometown, no reports of damage there; hope she’s enjoying it!

Looks like DCA only got down to 83 or 84
