Another 90 degree day in Mount Laurel with a disgusting dew point of 73.  See some mid 70s dews around.  For the last week of August, it stinks. It would be pretty stinky for the last week of July too.  Philly is on the verge, 90F on C conversion can be 89 or 90.  A 91 on the 5 min obs is a definite 90 degree day (that could be 91 or 92).

94 / 74 split locally

officially the 94 at PHL tied for the 4th warmest on this date, the low of 75 is tied for the 2nd warmest

from my standpoint the piss poor air quality is a huge factor in the misery index on days like today, when I'm beachfront down south in DP's that are routinely in mid to upper 70's it just doesn't feel as uncomfortable in that clean air as it does in this slop

Some of this hazy look is fire related too.  We have a chance to tie 1978 for the most number of days in August to have a min of 70F or higher.  Looks like it might come down to the 1 am temp on Friday night.

The 10+10 am temp would give PHL a high of 94.  Today I'd feel more confident about 95F or 96F.  

Speaking of comfort, after spending an hour watering everything and having sweat dripping into my eyes, this has to be the most disgusting day of the summer, a total waste of a climo normal low 80s day.
