Record heat smothers much of US, DC hits 104
Summer just started and already getting a nice amount of record heat.
The heat wave smothering the central U.S. on Friday spread east -- and for Washington, D.C., that meant topping out at 104 degrees at Reagan National Airport around 5 p.m. ET.
The nation's capital broke the June 29 record mark by 3 degrees and, with the humidity, it felt like 112, the National Weather Service reported.
The old record of 101 degrees stood for 138 years. Washington's all-time record is 106.
Nashville, Tenn., saw 109 degrees on Friday -- smashing its 60-year record by two degrees.
