During the heat emergency, it can be hard to remember what it feels like to be cold. Here's a little mind refresher, tweeted out by the National Park Service:

And here's a reply from Kevin Ambrose @dcstormchaser:

Gotta love the smile on that guy!
Kevin's a member of the Capital Weather Gang and a prolific weather photographer. As long as you're staying cool indoors, you might want to spend a few minutes browsing through Kevin's recent shots on Twitter (As you might have guessed, I am holding out for the old name -- not going to call it "X," ever. That's my position and I'm sticking to it, the way my mother --like all good and true New Yorkers-- never, ever called Sixth Avenue anything but Sixth Avenue, even though it was officially renamed "Avenue of the Americas" in 1945!)
Here are some of Kevin's greatest hits -- seven posted photos from July 26 (#1 ) back to Feb 25, 2023 (#7) .
