CWG Live updates: Warmer and more humid today; breeze from Hurricane Erin tomorrow
Welcome to updated around-the-clock by Capital Weather Gang meteorologists. Happening now: Mostly cloudy and muggier this morning, then partly sunny this afternoon with highs around 80 to 85. Much of the day is probably dry, but an isolated shower or storm is possible. What's next? Somewhat breezy tomorrow as Hurricane Erin passes by off the coast. Sunny and delightful Friday and Saturday, then shower and storm chances return Sunday. Today's daily digit — 6/10: Some sun and highs back into the 80s feel more like summer for those who want that, though we could live without the increased humidity. |🤚Your call? The digit is a somewhat subjective rating of the day's weather, on a 0-to-10 scale. Forecast in detail Today (Wednesday): Mostly cloudy morning skies should turn partly sunny this afternoon.

Confidence: Low-Medium BETHANY BEACH, Delaware — Hurricane Erin will pass well offshore the Mid-Atlantic but close enough to generate strong winds and dangerous seas and surf for Virginia, Maryland and Delaware beaches, particularly Wednesday and Thursday. Conditions may remain perilous into the weekend — upending plans for scores of local residents who may typically be vacationing in the area — and many beaches are already closed for swimming. The National Weather Service is warning that both Erin and a zone of high pressure north of the storm will funnel wind and water into the coast, generating multiple hazards that include life-threatening rip currents, waves over eight feet, periods of tidal flooding and beach erosion. High winds — with gusts exceeding 35 mph — are also possible. Tropical storm watches are in effect for coastal waters from Virginia Beach to Fenwick Island, Delaware, including Ocean City, Maryland. The winds will probably be strongest late Wednesday into Thursday. The Weather Service is forecasting peak waves of 6 to 10 feet along the Delaware beaches and 8 to 12 feet for the Maryland and Virginia beaches, with wave heights peaking late Wednesday into Thursday. As the water piles up along the coasts, areas of at least minor to moderate coastal flooding are likely to develop — especially near high tide Wednesday and Thursday.

Coolest day of summer comes to D.C. two days after hot Sunday
It was obviously cool in the capital on Tuesday, but it may not have been so obvious that it was also the coolest day of the entire summer. However, the official high temperature in the District on Tuesday was 73 degrees, and an examination of the figures for every other day here since the summer solstice shows that they all — every one of them — had been warmer than that.
