Wow.  you UHI'd way more than me.  Maybe my lower elevation helped this time.

I think it’s almost all elevation/inversion.  The stations that aren’t on the Tyson’s “ridge” were down in the 30/31 range.  The ones that are were in the 35/36 range.  When I walked down the hill to drop the kid off at school it looked like a different world, and that is like a block away.

Amazing I’ve beaten you and some others despite being in the tropics. 
 

29.4° here

Been a weird week. Maybe it snuck down to 32 another morning or two, but definitely been a little warm spot relative to surrounding areas. Not sure why exactly.

Almost comical at this point.  35.6 for my low.  Even DCA in the river went lower.

I know I talk about it occasionally, but the elevation/cold air drainage/inversion thing is amazing.  This is my frost-free backyard with an extremely frosty soccer field in the background.  The difference in elevation is ~30’.

I have the same thing at my spot a couple miles NE of Germantown -- for example I was 31 this morning while Gaithersburg was reporting 25.  I figure we are on some hills while that little airport is down in a flat, low area.

Those microclimates in Germantown and surrounding areas are pretty insane. I saw that first hand for the 3 years I worked/lived in the area before moving out here.
