Sorry. DCA did make it to 21.
I can umagine if a thermometer is out in front of the Williard with macadam , brick and buildings then radiation is hampered, if you live in a townhouse ior apartment and your thermometer is secured on or around the building then the same thing. Out in a field surrounded by open space and runway then same Doesnt apply. But, it’s FAA and not NWS.
