90s watch: Tuesday’s 96 degrees in Washington got us our 36th day at or above 90 this summer. We’d been running below normal just about the whole way, but we’re now right about average to date. A typical year averages 40 90-degree days, based on the 1991-2020 climate. Looking at the weather models, it seems that there’s a decent shot we’ll get there. The GFS, below, shows a whole lot of near-90 days in our future.
