in last 2 days I got .77 tues and .6ish last night as others have stated (here in Lanco), its as lush as I've seen in some time for mid July. Nice to see the grass recovering from last couple years of dry periods that have wreaked havoc on my areas w/ shallow rock beds below. Happy mid summer to all.

Hey everyone......looky who stopped in...the wondertwins. Now do the forum a favor.....and deactivate. (many old timers will get this) He offers far more credible info than you guys ever will.

How do I quote the user then

EMATT just like winter.

I would say that area is generally less prone to high heat (100s+) than the coastal plain. It does happen, but not very frequently. Regardless, my point is just that the reading is way above any surrounding observations in the immediate vicinity. Clearly, it was a hot day either way, but that reading is obviously inflated somewhat from either instrument error or poor siting/exposure.

Actually not too bad out, just warm humid air up and over the warm front

2009 was the last summer at a warm spot like Newark which averaged under 74°.

Station right around the corner from my house reporting just shy of 3" between 6 am and 7:30 this morning. Rest of area seems to be 1 to 1.5 in that time frame. https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KVTNORWI10 First good drink in 3 weeks.

I dont know the area there well enough but 110 in NJ would support the higher readings. it was 104 in Newark that day NYC 106 / 102 those days.

TO ALL BEARISH POSTERS AND WX METS: The MDR has been rapidly warming during the last two weeks! June 25: 26.76C (0.00C anomaly) July 10: 27.33C (0.38C anomaly) It's currently getting close to the +0.60C value we had in 2020 (YES, the spam year) at this time of the year. Give it another two weeks of similar warming, wed be around the same level as 2005 (one of my analogs along with 2005, 2017, 1996, 2021).

My area (Staten Island) usually does pretty good with convection, in fact my July avg rainfall is over 5 inches. But not this year with this more or less dry pattern since September.

not today.... .SYNOPSIS... A stationary frontal boundary across the region through tonight eventually shifts farther south heading into the start of the weekend. High pressure builds east of the waters for the latter half of this weekend before weakening early next week.

When is this stationary front supposed to finally move out of the way? Temps are down, but dew points are thru the roof.

You wanted it humid. Humid it will be.

Since YOU don't agree with an official temp, then it HAS to be wrong. Get off your high horse. Your name gives away your extreme bias. BTW, I hear those neighboring sites had foliage problems, so that explains it

Category5Kaiju has great points He should visit here

I wonder how much cloud cover impacts that? I'd think that more cloud cover would reduce the UHI effect and maybe that helps normalize DC temps? Just a guess though.

That’s a real dirty sanchez.

The posters/forecasters I favor the heaviest have neither a bullish nor a bearish bias from my perspective.

I understand that, but that doesn't explain why the Martinsburg temperatures are consistently 5F warmer than surrounding towns in that era, including on the date it "hit" a state record of 112F. On the same date, it was 103F in Hagerstown (25-minute drive) and 105F in Kearnesyville (10-ish minute drive) with no appreciable elevation difference.

I know it’s the flight. But considering your start I didn’t expect your BAC to be much below 0.15 during the trip.

What? It never gets above 90F on Mount Chesco!
