  1. 97/74, HI 108. Still full sun, with some cu building to the NW
  2. Yeah, we can’t know for sure. But sticking with persistence works until it doesn’t. And for now, it’s still working, at least for mby. 94/75, heat advisory criteria verified with a HI of 106. EDIT: Now 96/76, HI 110
  3. If we extrapolate two linear trend lines, one from may 1 and another from june 16, and assume a november peak, we’ll top out at 1.8-1.9. I’ll go conservative and predict a 1.6-1.7 OND peak.
  4. Yep. We’re gonna take the kid to the mosaic
  5. Same. Saw apocalyptic clouds directly overhead, but some sun breaking through from the west. Knew right then it wasn’t happening. But it was close. Missed by a couple miles
  6. 92/74/102 Pacing a few degrees behind yesterday. Likely topping out at 95, give or take a degree
  7. Looks like this morning’s mesos want to create another DC split today
  8. this one initiated right over my house and moved NE. I got a trace. Those who got rain from this - you’re welcome.
  9. Cloud cover overhead from incoming storms (whether I get rain or not is a big IF). Think I'm done climbing temps for today. Max 99.5, highest observed heat index was 112 (I got the 115 figure from a second obs nearby, but I'll throw that out as an outlier).
  10. So far 99.5 is my high. Some stations in the ashburn area have reached 100
  11. Fall short of EHW criteria? According to some obs west of 95 to around route 15, we already reached that. I think the EHW was justified. Nearest reporting 98.8/76.9. HI 115
  12. 97/77, HI 112. Wow IAD fell back to 94 at latest obs though
  13. 94/76, feels like 107. Probably will hit 110 HI sometime this afternoon today
  14. Cluster weakened as it passed over me, but it still produced winds strong enough to give trees a good shaking and even tossed a garbage bin across the street. And… it rained pretty good. We needed this.
  15. This looks like the best opportunity for my area all year.
  16. You were right. IAD went higher despite early cloud cover because of the local drought
  17. Gray wall of rain less than a mile away. So tantalizingly close
  18. big anvil cloud passing just to my north. Still sunny here. Probably another miss EDIT: just stepped outside and looked directly upwind. All clear skies.
  19. High of 98 so far, sitting at 97/74. HI 108. If I wanted to use a sauna right now, I could just sit outside.
  20. Skies starting to clear out. Temps to make one last push toward upper 90s soon
  21. I think at this point it’s safe to throw out the BoM model altogether for this year.
