Washington DC 2026 lodging heat

20262027

Washington DC shows a moderate seasonal swing: sample heat runs higher around Sep–Nov, softer around Jul–Aug, Dec (monthly sample means about 1.2–1.8). Long weekends, conventions and school breaks often beat a simple “season.” Index ≈ each hotel’s off-peak baseline—not a live city-wide rate.
