Those poor people without electricty in the Washington area
 
No power for days in 100 plus degree heat :Oh crap

We had one about ten years ago that lasted a day and a half in a heat wave, not as bad as this one, and it was miserable.

It was a kind of storm I've never heard of before called a "derecho".

With the heat like that, I can't believe no one died.

Last report I read had the count up to 13 deaths so far... not necessarily in D.C. but in the entire region affected by the heat wave and storm.

You're right, now they're saying there were 22 deaths.
