Same here! Had a late night thunderstorm last night. We at least got some rain.

I agree, and it's not making me very happy. I was rooting for another 1999 or 2002, but things just don't seem to be working out. Earlier this week JB boldly proclaimed that 7 of the next 10 days would see 90°F or higher at DCA -- haven't seen him repeat it since, of course, as the modelling almost unanimously shows a trough setting up shop in the northeast again by the middle of next week. I believe we have hit 90° no more than six or seven days this year at IAD.

"A-Men" on the heat and humidity! Hey, Chad,
just hold an ice cold beer bottle to those
"skeeter" bites (as you drink), and, it's a
soothing and delicious cure!

Been really hot and humid here too... Had good chances of rain for the past few days, but this dome over my house seems to keep the rain away.. I guess I need to water my plants and wash my car.. That always makes it rain!

[breeze]

LOL, YankeeGirl, that carwashing will certainly
get the rain going, every time!

Heat index is supposed to be 95 - 100, here,
today, with a chance of afternoon
thundershowers. That outta make things
quite hot and steamy!

Well, things are still not looking good for us folks from the Mid Atlantic on northward awaiting the first big heat wave. JB is surely eating his words as we speak WRT the number of 90°F or higher days in select cities... they just don't look like they're going to pan out, or even come close.

Here is today's (July 10) 12z Euro valid next Thursday morning... deep trough in the east with a closed low meandering over the Lakes and Northeast. Lots of sub-570dm heights for these areas... pretty telling of the bust for anyone who had cried heat for this time period.

96 here today with heat indicies closing in on 105. Too hot. In fact, this might be the hottest in several years. Some places may be close to 100 by mid-week(yes, air temperature )
