98 / 72 here

I thought this was supposed to be a dry heatwave?

lol "including the cities of Adams Morgan and Washington" - need to check that! DC has not had any separate municipalities since the late 1800s!

94.1/79.5, feels like 113.

the high dews are keeping temps down a bit Don, but the heat indices around here are nuts (105-110F).

not sure a low 80s dewpoint is much help lol

Makes for some good fishing though!

what will you be doing outside to enjoy your favorite weather?

Dulles Airport has reached 96°. That ties its daily record from 2012. Many more records will fall in coming days in the Mid-Atlantic region.

Templeton wins again clearly in the sun

Churchville in Harford County is getting the smallest bit of help from a bay breeze. 91/81.

I'm seeing that everywhere. Acton, Hudson ... over here at the Oxbow ob and up in Groton about 4 clicks N of me, all over 96 out of nowhere. Shirley ob is 94 .. I'm surrounded by big heat numbers now. The home sites less than a 1/2 mi away are all 94 to 97.

98/79/115

good luck. i have seen knotweed in my area, but not in my 'hood. but i do keep a close eye out for it. I hate the invasive crap. meanwhile, pretty much every beech tree in my 'hood is either dead or dying. sad, as I really like the look of beeches.

do you own the panels, or do you lease them form a solar company ?

Getting a good jump in temp here in the past half hour. 89.4/72

This is why you want to own the panels, and not lease them for a solar power company.

Not to mention the smell if you thought he left.

96/111 - absolutely disgusting

Yeah, I don't have an oil option here. Not sure what the comparison would be. Part of problem with oil is the carbon footprint. My aim after consult with the install engineer was that using power from solar... even if it still needs to be supplemented by the NGRID ( which I call Ngrip or nut grip.. ) would be 'doing what I can' ... and not purely dumping C02 into a system already force fed. So, together with lowering demand by a much more efficient compressor (mini splits) ..etc I'm not part of the meal, just crumbs.

95/75 at DCA is pretty brutal.

Yeah the "west fart" has been happening pretty consistently. Easterlies break down around 4-5pm and a quick spike follows. Easterlies broke down around 2:30 yesterday and KBOS spiked 6F in 5 mins. For enterprising folks looking to make a quick buck, this is a very gameable liquidity pattern on the prediction markets. Easterly winds tamp down temps, degenerate gamblers who don't know what they're doing pump money into this suddenly interesting looking bracket of lower temps (higher temp positions gain much better pricing at the same time), then the west wind rug pulls 'em at the buzzer. These easterly winds rarely hold through sundown... dollars are being sold for 70-80c
