Cool and gray, Friday seemed nothing like Washington in August
The sun didn't shine in Washington on Friday; gray clouds covered the sky, and the temperature stayed in the 70s when not in the 60s, making it seem as if the city had stealthily migrated to Scotland or Scandinavia or Duluth, Minnesota. August began in D.C. on Friday on a day that seemed to lack much similarity to the month or the season, a day that defied conventional Washington weather wisdom, a day with almost no trace of the summertime trials and torments that Washington had so recently been enduring.

Summer in Canada steams ahead in August, with a few hints of fall
Welcome to August! This remains a toasty, humid, and sometimes stormy time of year for many communities across Canada. What's in store for your weather during the month ahead? Forecasters see summer rolling along as we head through August—but with some areas experiencing a few hints of fall, as well. Visit our for an in-depth look at the Summer Forecast, tips to plan for it and much more! August starts with a divided pattern across Canada We'll kick off the month with a divided pattern draped across the country. A brief period of cooler weather is settling into place across much of Eastern Canada to start August. Meanwhile, warmer-than-normal temperatures will dominate areas from British Columbia all the way through northwestern Ontario. DON'T MISS: Early August will also see a decent amount of rainfall pushing into portions of British Columbia and Alberta. Some sporadic rain could even fall across parts of Saskatchewan and Manitoba where wildfires are currently contributing to poor air quality for large portions of the country. The eastern cooldown won't last long. We'll see above-seasonal temperatures quickly return to Ontario, Quebec, and Atlantic Canada as we enter the second week of the month. Variable conditions, warmth return for the second half of August Looking ahead to the second half of the month, warmer-than-normal temperatures are expected to dominate from Ontario to Atlantic Canada, as well as across most of B.C. However, we'll still see a few doses of cooler air interrupt the warmth. MUST SEE: Folks on the Prairies can expect more changeable conditions through the middle and end of August. Periods of hot weather will be interspersed with a risk for longer stretches of cooler conditions—a back-and-forth that may result in overall temperatures that average out closer to seasonal for the remainder of the month. Average temperatures will slowly begin to decline through August. Occasional doses of cooler air, episodes of dew and fog in the morning, and shrinking daylight hours will all combine to provide hints of fall as we progress through the month. Watching the tropics for potential hazards August marks a distinct uptick in tropical activity across the Atlantic basin. Forecasters largely expect an above-average season this year—and there are signs that the Atlantic will come to life close to schedule as a favourable pattern develops during the middle and latter portions of August. Anyone in Atlantic Canada should prepare for hurricane season well before any storms have a chance to threaten the region. Make sure you're prepared for potential flooding, evacuations, wind damage, and power outages. The remnants of tropical systems hitting the U.S. can even track into Ontario and Quebec, bringing a risk for flooding, high winds, and tornadoes across the region.

After a generally mild start to summer, August is bringing triple digit temperatures
After a month of relatively mild summer temperatures across much of Southern California, Mother Nature is turning up the heat next week. Temperatures this weekend will hover in the mid-80s in downtown Los Angeles, and the high 80s to mid-90s in the valleys and persist through at least Monday, according to the National Weather Service. The low clouds and morning fog that hang along the coast and burns off by the early afternoon is also expected to continue. But not for long. The mercury is forecast to rise on Tuesday, and by Wednesday it'll be extra toasty across much of Los Angeles County with temperatures soaring past 100 degrees in the valleys and the low 80s along the coast, said Mike Wofford, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service, in Oxnard. Read more: City by the Bay? More like City by the Brrr! San Francisco is having its coldest summer in decades "We're not looking at temperatures like we've seen in some previous summers, where we've gotten to 120 degrees, but it's certainly looking like 5 to 10 degrees above normal," Wofford said. Downtown Los Angeles could experience temperatures in the mid-90s by the middle of next week. Woodland Hills is forecast to get up to about 107 degrees and Burbank could get up to about 100 degrees, according to the weather service. Over the last few weeks a persistent low pressure system has been lingering in the Pacific Northwest and British Columbia which has kept temperatures cooler across much of California. But next week a high pressure system will expand from New Mexico and Arizona toward the west coast bringing a significant warm up. "We definitely had a pretty quiet July. We had some warm temperatures in June there for a bit, but July was pretty blah in terms of temperatures," Wofford said. Widespread strong winds are not expected to accompany next week's warm up, reducing the risk of serious fire weather conditions, Wofford said. But it's still early in the fire season, experts warn. With heat waves likely continuing through the rest of the summer, drying out brush, and later fall winds kicking up, it could make for dangerous conditions in the coming months. As temperatures rise, officials caution the public to stay hydrated, avoid strenuous outdoor activities and check on those who are vulnerable to heat-related illnesses. On Wednesday, a 21-year-old hiker collapsed from possible heat stroke while hiking on a trail near Lake Berryessa. Another six hikers were also suffering from heat related illness and had to be rescued, according to the Vacaville Fire District. "Take HEAT seriously," the fire district warned in a post on Instagram. "This could have been deadly." Sign up for Essential California for news, features and recommendations from the L.A.
