I never understood that either. As Al Sleet, The Hippy Dippy Weatherman
would say, "Nobody lives at the airport, man!"

Review, whom I record temps for, which the NWS uses, speculates that the
area I'm in is one of several local "heat islands" like those NASA and the
NWS are studying in Atlanta. Makes sense to me, as the "official" DC temps
are recorded at National Airport, which ISN'T in the city, but across the
Potomac River in Alexandria, and the reporting station is out in the open
near the river--cooler temps, breezes, etc.--less concrete to hold the heat.
Their temps and mine vary most of the time, with mine tending to be warmer
in the summer months and colder in the winter months. Climate's a funny
thing, yes??
