DC Heat Wave: Cool Off At These Outdoor Bars
Enjoy the sunshine — and the heat! — in one of these outdoor bars.

WASHINGTON, DC — With temperatures and humidity rising in the District, a refreshing, cold drink seems especially appealing.
Warm temperatures are in the forecast, with high temps in the low 90s on Wednesday. It will feel like 99 degrees by 3 p.m. Wednesday, and conditions will only worsen this week. By Friday, afternoon temperatures will feel like 102 degrees and feel like 104 degrees by mid-afternoon Saturday.
Soaking up the sunshine with a cocktail in hand is what summer’s all about. Enjoy the season (and the heat!) with these outdoor bars around DC.
