I don’t understand all the complaining about the summer weather here. Are y’all really this stupid? DC is basically in the south. It might be the northern edge of the south, but it’s still the south. We’re basically at sea-level, at a latitude only 15 degrees away from the tropics. Of course it’s going to be blazing hot and super humid in the summers.

Why are people constantly surprised by this???

Do you not understand how to look at a map?

Be happy you’re not in Florida or Nevada then. This is nothing.

I'm with you OP, my seasonal depression is starting to get bad. If I didn't have to work here I would have moved north long time ago. Counting down to retirement and moving to Maine.

It is getting worse. I moved here from the South decades ago and summers were a breeze. The temps almost never were near 100. Not only is the heat horrible but the persistent drought makes the area look like a hellscape. I like to garden and have adjusted the plants I grow because of the changing climate.

I moved from the north decades ago and my first summer was hell. I was wearing blouses and pantyhouse and walking from my crappy apartment to metro. It did get more temperate after that but I am pretty sure if I weren't so poor I would have moved right back away!

When I lived in MN I complained about the -40 degree windchill days. Living here I complain about anything over 90 degrees. Just because it is expected doesn’t mean that it doesn’t suck.

Keep buying pets and feeding them meat. Keep driving around in your air conditioned car and keeping your house at a pleasant 72 degrees. Keep taking international vacations. Keep buying new clothes each season. Keep getting seasonal tchotchkes for holidays and kids' birthdays. Keep buying berries year round and apples from Chile. Keep going to the polls and voting and hoping for the best. Keep buying bitcoin. Keep doing what you're doing. Everything is fine. It will all be fine.

Because it sucks. It's really unpleasant and it never gets less crappy.

A lot of people didn’t grow up here or in the south so yes, the god awful summers are still a surprise to them. Not to mention they continue to get worse year after year.
