Already 90 IMBY. This is my song of choice when doing a Jebwalk on the surface of Venus. (I was out watering flowers and didn’t even last as long as the song lol)

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 

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 

[Terpeast]

Already at 95 at 10:30 am

[snowfan]

Just finished a 20 mi bike ride. Worse than your typical swamp ass day.

[JakkelWx]

96/77/112

[George BM]

IAD at 93/77 currently. 

[H2O]

So if I do the add 10° at 10am thing I will hit 104° again today. But I feel I will crack 105 and push 106 unless clouds pop

[weatherCCB]

[snowfan]

HI of 108 at bwi at 1055. Woof.

[Hank Scorpio]

93° with a heat index of 110° according to my tempest. Today feels like the day I finally crack 100°...hit 99.9° a bunch yesterday but never got over the hump. 

Also just saw that Leesburg canceled the 4th of July parade tomorrow because of the heat. We go every year, so it's a real bummer, but I get it.

[Eskimo Joe]

Several mesonet site creeping into the upper 90s my money is on Goldsboro and Federalsburg going gangbusters on the eastern shore.

97 in Ashburn

It'll be criminal for IAD to not hit 100° if BWI and DCA do.
