  1. also this feels like one of the most useless things to have at the top of a post page
  2. I was trying to think of places that are warm with no humidity on the reg.. not like 100 warm I used to live in one in the desert of CA. San Diego and?
  3. I'm sorta in between barbers I guess.. long story. But the time seemed right. I do believe I will go back to professionals at some point tho lol. Ran off to Twitter with everyone there but have noted multiple times how it was nice to be cordoned off from the rest of the world in a place like this vs that.
  4. I was going to write about it but in my cursory look there was no smoking gun. There was also some precedent. My rough analysis didn't show much correlation to the disturbed area as it came to wind direction etc. Granted it could just warm the ambient temperature somewhat but LWX also tested it and didn't find a problem with the equipment. It did seem weird yes. I have not followed this year much. for the period of 90+ at DCA thru yday... stations look like they're running pretty close compared to themselves at least. IAD 5th warmest DCA 6th warmest BWI 9th warmest (4th warmest at current spot)
  5. Not sure but I'd guess perhaps. He used to have a radio show with Berk waaay back. Similar ideologies overall I think. A lot of these folks are just lazy (intellectually or otherwise). BWI may have run warm last year.. so now it's king of heat. Also it was pretty hard to prove BWI was running warm last year. Not sure anyone ever really did. Meanwhile two of the days that missed at BWI were 88s and one was 89. DCA broke the other way this time on a few days.. it tends to run warmer than BWI/IAD esp before late season.
  6. 91 high at 351... then the torturous 88 at 352. they should remark that in for us.
  7. Should be 7th (cant count) longest on record (4th by days but ties) if my excel is right.
  8. starting to understand what waterboarding feels like
  9. if worst comes to worst...
  10. yeah the site has been wonky lately throwing random obs onto the main page.
  11. some 32s earlier so prob not the suspense is killing me edit: does look to be clearing both outside and on sat. we got this.
  12. I was about to do it months ago but then I chickened out. Had a few kitchen cuts when we went to CT for a while this spring -- still was in dire need. It was just a buzz at a 3... not sure I super love it but it might not be bad a bit longer. we'll see. different! and certainly much easier to deal with. the heat hurts a little less... unless I get a sunburn on my head.
  13. might get screwed today. a cloud patch has found us.
  14. ahh yeah I see now. last night's was more in line with the other models in the low 90s or so. it is a situation we tend to bake.
  15. Euro in with the torch tomorrow. Gets DC to 98.
  16. I (my gf) buzzed my hair the other night. First time ever. It's weird but also nice. I feel like I can go days without showering now. Also I'm gonna try to be back. I have missed the more focused and friendly discussion of this place lately.
  17. yeah seems to maybe be ongoing. nice spike at one to 87. imagine we'll get it now but no sense in being cocky lol.
  18. yeah looks like at least 85 there per 5 min obs. not bad for noon... nws ticked back up to 90 from 89. does seem we will make a run at the July record per modeling.
  19. really gonna be a shame when we 89 between two two-week stretches of 90s. ;p
  20. I am not so sure these days. You too! If we make it through tomorrow... it has trended right. (I finally cleaned out my attachments so I can post pics)
  21. Summer 10-12 is back. :< For DC... Most 90 degree days on record in August 2nd hottest August (by one degree on one day of the month) Hottest July/August 3rd hottest summer
  22. Think we got too much rain last night. Temp of 82 at 10 would require a pretty huge rise to get to 100. We might get some upper 70s dews tho later.
  23. DCA hit 97+ five days in a row... should be it. Ties for the 4th longest stretch of 97+ in DC.
  24. I looked to 2000, has happened a few times. Most recently in 2011, April 4.. 43/86. Dulles actually has 5 above 50 but not that shocking for its location I suppose. 4/11/1977 87 33 54 4/3/1981 86 34 52 1/28/1987 35 -17 52 3/23/1994 83 32 51 4/18/1985 84 34 50
