  1. There very likely is not a United States without the French, and there likely is not the French republic without us.
  2. Fitting that France wins on July 4th - our oldest ally, and definitely an important part of our victory over the British. Plus - while most of the philosophical ideas of the founders (let's call it enlightenment-era liberalism) come from English tradition, plenty also come from the French (Montesquieu etc). And of course, a ton of what is now the US used to be part of France!
  3. only 2nd time ever (last time in 1930) that DC has had three straight days of 102.
  4. yeah big ol' split showing up right now. LOL at least we would preserve the back-to-back 84F lows.
  5. yeah i just took a look at that cell - good lord. Luckily it's going over an area that is mostly sparsely populated (as long as it stays a good deal west of I-81).
  6. DCA back to 102/70 with a heat index of 110 - 4th straight day with heat index of 110+.
  7. ah ok - yeah I mean we are talking about a matter of a degree or two. They are 99 at 5pm ob, so maybe one more push lol.
  8. the atmosphere seems perturbed looking at the radar lol.
  9. someone needs to check that out - there's no way they didn't hit 100 in western Fairfax / eastern Loudoun.
  10. we have three straight of 102+ - I wonder if that is a record. In 2024 we set the record streak of 101+ (4).
  11. BOS had back-to-back 100+ highs and 80+ lows - that's pretty insane, AND they stayed above 80 again overnight.
  12. 94 at 10am at DCA - but dews are back into the 60s, so it actually doesn't feel as horrible.
  13. baseball and fireworks is a 100/100 America score
  14. DCA officially had an 87/80 on the 1am ob for a heat index of 103F. Come on man.
  15. Messi was leaving the pitch and the look on his face was - we really dodged a bullet there.
  16. they literally almost tied it up right at the end for a 3rd time - just incredible effort.
  17. DC just cancelled theirs for tomorrow.
  18. at least by the 1990s, the heat index was definitely something communicated pretty routinely in local news etc, at least in these parts. Not sure what you mean by "preferred narrative" aside from stating obvious facts about now versus in the past.
  19. 95 at 10pm at DCA lol. I assume the wind will switch and some point and it will go to like 88/79 but still.
