  1. This was dead on for yesterdays 102 high at DCA from a 92 at 10am and it’s 93 today at 10am so let’s see if it nails it again today
  2. That would have to be in direct sun and even then…
  3. I think in the horrid heaters of 2010,11,12 we had nights where from 10-midnight we were still in the 90’s? Ive “cooled” off nicely from death to warm
  4. Standing out in grass watering just now and I was fine. At 2 today I had to try and give it a go and made a little trouble for meself
  5. Shows me that 85 with a 90 heat index pales compared to 11-4 today at 98-102 with HI 110ish plus direct strong sun. Feels to me 25-30 degrees cooler now
  6. Thanks. So once every 2 years and I was thinking closer to 1 in every 3
  7. This is how it was on upper level of my split level with the short attic . Last fall I put 14” blown insulation in and new gables. Today I was able to maintain 75 upstairs with AC on for 20-25 minutes, off for 7/8 and back on 20-25. What were others settings and time frames today? Thanks
  8. Hi Don Hiw many times has DCA hit 102 or higher 1976-2026? im gonna guess 16 revised up from my earlier 14
  9. Hey Don S How many times since 1976 has DCA hit 102 or higher. im gonna guess 14
  10. I tried to water the plants but at 10 minutes got dizzy and had to stop and run cold water over my head
  11. A general rule of thumb in heat situations like this is add 10F to the 10am temp at DCA for its high and it’s at 92 at 10am
  12. This was either overzealous inexperience or pattern recognition denial OR, the models Now are lousy in summer with precipitation movements and location like they are in winter . i could have issued a damp street warning and been far more accurate
  13. And I don’t think I could have predicted this any better
  14. It is training nearly stationary north of the beltway but is light to spotty moderate
  15. Forecasters need to catch on that rain events are not being realized. It’s called pattern recognition. Friday afternoon was forecasted as a 90% Rainer into and thru Saturday and so far barely more than Zero
  16. The big red blob gave me 0.35”
  17. Will any of the rain make it to DC and if so when? Thanks
  18. My highest temp of year at 97 with heat index of 105
