Denton MD has a stronger UHI than Goldsboro. They're about 10 feet lower in elevation than here, it's next to a river, and it's a decent sized town. I'm getting jealous. Looks like 95/80 there. Meanwhile 94/78 here.
Edit: 95/81 at KNUI (St. Inigoes) now. Heat index 117.
Cambridge, MD Regional Airport (KCGE) reported an OBS of 90/82 at 10:15 AM- Heat index of 112.
St. Inigoes Airport (KNUI) reported an OBS of 94/81 at 11:53 AM- Heat index of 115!
Looks like a special combo of very light winds off the bay and corn sweat is contributing to dews in the low 80s in MD's eastern shore next to the Bay. Temps in the low 90s already there too. Heat indexes skyrocketing to 110.
Dews should mix out some to make it 0.001% more bearable this afternoon.
BWI hit 90F at 9:40 AM. Currently 91/74 there.
DCA has just hit 90F as of 10:20 AM. 90/73
IAD hit 90F at 9:50 AM. 90/72
Already 5,000 SBCAPE in MD's southeast shore but that will definitely be wasted today as there's no trigger for storms
83/81 at KWAL - Wallops Flight Facility
86/79 at KNUI - St. Inigoes
82/78 here.
Lots of weather stations with 80 degree dews this morning a little farther south
Edit: Looks like 85/80 in Easton MD
I can make out some sort of weak frontal boundary evidenced by the rapid dropoff in SBCAPE west of the Chesapeake Bay. Dews are really high in the Delmarva because they are east of the boundary. Tomorrow's dews will likely only be in the mid-upper 60s regionwide so maybe a sneaky 100 in spots.
Lol. Winter forecasts for 2020-21 are of course, already out on YouTube by the same usual suspects (a la DirectWeather, etc). Surprise surprise, it's the factory default cold/snowy forecast every year brought to you by armchair weather weenies!
