GramaxRefugee Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 Suddenly getting a breezy rainfall here in Mitchellville; about 16:30. Not a lot of clouds in the sky either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know we had hotter days earlier this summer, but, man, just took a walk four blocks to my bank downtown and it was absolutely brutal in Baltimore City. Yeah...I’m not someone who complains often about heat, but it was bad today. From early morning when we took my oldest daughter to the bus stop for her first day of kindergarten to walking to my car at about 3:00 pm, it was muggy and hot. Looking forward to the upcoming rain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GramaxRefugee Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 My Davis gadget says max heat index was 109 today, riding on a DP of 83. (Hi temp 89f) Blech. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amped Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 The air quality is awful. It smells like exhaust fumes are having an orgy with sewage fumes out there. Not opening a window or going outside tonight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlizzardNole Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Looking forward to this heat being over, and hopefully some rain. Boston is sure getting it bad -- 83/72 at 5 am and going up to near 100 with hx approaching 110. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MN Transplant Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Missed the latest 80° low on record at DCA by a degree this morning. Still should set the daily record absent a random pop-up shower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

September may be almost here, but there is nothing but heat and humidity in the forecast for at least the next 7 days. At some point it will break, but that provides little consolation when the extended forecast shows nothing but the same miserable weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is true, looking at September as a whole it seems only the very end of the month may feature some cooler weather. And wow, there are some very warm SSTs off the East Coast , the buoy off of Cape May , NJ. is 80 degrees F. Also, it looks like the Atlantic hurricane season will be ramping up big time soon, A large hurricane in the center of the Atlantic and moving North over time next week and then another more threatening long track may form and threaten the Southeast in 15 to 20 days . Speculation of couyrse, but things are going to get more active. This will also possibly change the NW Atlantic SST configuration no doubt as well with implications for thew winter season maybe.

MN Transplant Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 I suppose it is better that we go trough west/ridge east in September rather than July, but it does just extend Summer. Really a stagnant, gross pattern coming up. DPs in the upper 60s and 70s throughout the entire GFS run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frd Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Granted this is looking out into September, still it's amazing how long this warmth looks to hold. I guess over seeding will have to wait . I cancelled my lawn aerator till at least the middle of September. Lawn was recovering a bit and now this heat has it looking aweful again .

BlizzardNole Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 My parched lawn and garden need rain so bad. Once nice cell formed just north over Clarksburg, another just south over Gaithersburg, and they are moving NE away. Brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
