Andrews was 31.  H2O in Alex was 31.  I was 30.  I don’t know what you are talking about.  We know exactly where the thermometer is, in the middle of a grassy area on the river side of the runways.

That is probably a big issue. I understand the UHI issue and it’s a big one but I think the water issue is huge too. I think comes into play with the Boston and New York just getting their first freeze. For me, and it’s no biggie to me, if DCA wants to have weather data that is representative of DC, then that temp sensor needs to be as far from the water as possible.

Andrews23 DCA 30 and Andrews is further East and  south and in a similar situation of marginal “heat island” influences of being surrounded by improved property.

Andrews really is the killer of  all OK at DCA. 

Andrews is over 200ft above sea level and isn't surrounded (currently) by 47 degree water. It is also much less urban out there than what's surrounding DCA. Hard disagree.
