What's good about being in Washington, DC in August? Well, today's weather -- would you believe that? Capital Weather Gang rates it an 8/10. Here's their take on it and some words about tomorrow, Friday, and the weekend:
8/10: The dog days of August have lost their bark, as we enjoy another bright and comfortably warm day.
Express forecast
Today: Mostly sunny and comfortably warm. Highs: Mid- to upper 80s.
Tonight: Clear and calm. Lows: Upper 50s to mid-60s.
Tomorrow: Mostly sunny, a little warmer. Highs: Upper 80s to near 90.
Forecast in detail:
We’re living the high life under high pressure today, with tons of sunshine and comfortable warmth. It does trend a bit hotter by tomorrow afternoon, but still, temperatures should stay below or only briefly near 90 through the weekend. Humidity makes a decent comeback Friday and this weekend along with the return of shower and storm chances.
So what can you do on a beautiful, un-humid summer night? Find yourself a good restaurant, that's what -- one that's participating in DC's Restaurant Week.
Go to https://www.ramw.org/restaurantweek and then set the search at "outdoor dining" and you can enjoy a delicious and reasonably priced 3-course meal under the stars!
I did a quick search of five neighborhoods: Cleveland Park, Woodley Park, Cathedral Heights, Tenleytown, and Van Ness, and came up with these fantastic choices:
Talea Ristorante
Makers Union Cathedral Commons
Sababa Cleveland Park
Rosemary Bistro Cafe
Sfoglina Van Ness
Duke's Counter
New Heights
Bon appetit / buon appetito / buen provecho / enjoy your meal!
------------
The Get Out Event of the Week is posted on the Cleveland Park Listserv and on All Life Is Local, usually on Thursdays, but I bumped it up a day to get in another day of Restaurant Week, which started on Monday August 12 and is on through Sunday August 18, 2024.
