All righty, weather.com lists the temp as 96, RealFeel as 97.
That sounds about right.

Can you guys please send some sun my way? My plants are sad and we're stuck in MARCH here. (I'm sorry, Jilli, but fresh fruit and veggies that I don't have to pay for trump your fabulous wardrobe's extended season by a hair.)

WTF, boston.com? RealFeel of 76? I DON'T THINK SO.
I've been getting screwy tempratures from both weather.com and the national weather service for Boston this afternoon. They also keep trying to tell me that Salem is going to be 15 degrees cooler than Boston (and Beverly and Swampscott) tomorrow, and I'm not buying it. Don't get my freakin' hopes up!

Yeah, the weather doohickey on my Mac tells me it is now a whopping 50 degrees outside....
Of course, I'm going to Vegas today. Where it will be twice that. I'm not sure how to handle that, given that I don't think I've been in weather hotter than 70 degrees in ...god, I don't remember when?

97°F RealFeel® 103°F in my town, 96°F RealFeel® 100°F in Washington.
My house is less than 1 mile from DC, so I'm going to go with "really f-ing hot out there."

As long as you stay hydrated 100° in Vegas isn't really that bad. It's super-dry heat, and all the moisture being flash-evaporated from your skin will keep you feeling comparatively cool.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
DC's at 99 right now, and we're expected to break the record of 102 set all the way back in 1874.

I had thought this might be a milder summer than last given the rains and slow temperature ramp-up during the spring, but today's Natter makes me feel that we're going to see 106° again.
I don't want to see 106 unless it's on a birthday cake Willard Scott is giving someone.

I needed a jacket on Thursday. Two days later I'm putting my AC units in the windows. I do not LIKE! And the damn weather forecasters are pulling that "2 days later" shit on when the heat is going to really break.

I think that one of the reasons why its so horrible in DC is that we had really nice, unseasonably cool weather for the last few weeks, then BAM! Heat of the summer, baby! It's not unusual for this time, it's just that we didn't have the gradual warming, so it just feels hotter.
