High reading was coolest in 30 days, and humidity had vanished.
Monday delivered the sort of summer day that may exist more in dreams than in D.C. As July opened on a sunny day of sparkling light, the dry cool hours seemed to offer the city a vision of the warm season at the peak of its promise.
At 82, the temperature was seven degrees below the average for the city on July 1. At Dulles International Airport, the high was 80. For many hours, the feels-like temperature remained confined to the 70s. That figure, so seemingly low for a summer day in the District, testified to the absence of the humidity and of the summer haze that often blurs the skies into indistinctness.
The first day of July seemed the sort of day that took cognizance of its calendar significance, at the start of the year’s second six months, its final semester. It seemed by almost every atmospheric measure to break with Sunday, the day that ended June and the year’s first six months.It seemed to symbolize summer as a season of limitless potential for pleasurable outdoor pursuits. It showed itself a stranger to the scorch or steaminess that appeared to arrive often in June, amid 90-degree heat.
