[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]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? [/quote]

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. [/quote]

I call BS on people who post stuff like this.   You are either senile of have not in fact lived in this area for very long.  DC has ALWAYS been hot with lots of days in the 90s.  Going back the last 50 years, the majority of years had quite a bit more than 30 days of 90+ temps.    I was raised here and there have ALWAYS been summers with tons of 90+ days.  In 1980, 67 days.  In 1983, 55 days.  In 1988, 59 days.  In 1991, 59 days.  In 1993, 51 days.  In 1995, 52 days.  And so on.  So far we have had 29 days of 90+.  That is a lot, but lots of other summers have had lots as well........[/quote]

The fact is that summers are hotter.

Fact.
