On cusp of change, we saw continuity and an 88-degree day.
In Washington, the official afternoon high temperature reached 88 degrees. That could be regarded as a trifle high. After all, we have entered September, a month of change, a time to shed the thoughts and thermometer readings of summer.
Summer has great attractions, but many of us spend the weeks from June to September in constant fear of being overcome by the meteorological menace of oven-like days and sweltering nights.Though certainly warm, Friday’s 88 did not demand that we deploy kitchen imagery, to claim that we were cooking, roasting, baking, boiling or broiling. Instead, we found ourselves enjoying a late summer day, with temperatures poised to possibly make us regret that they would soon be no more.
Suffice it to say that on Friday, the “feels-like” temperature, what we experience, seemed close to the temperature reported by the thermometer alone. Could more be asked of the second day of September, the day before the start of the three-day weekend that many regard as the unofficial end of summer?Friday, represents a day that culturally and psychologically can be regarded as close to the outer boundary of summertime.
Every day carries its unique characteristics; it seems ungenerous to regard any day as standard or routine.
