Yes. It would.

It wouldn't necessarily be that night's minimum, but the first temperature below 40 WOULD be 39.

No.

Just making a point.

Is 39 NOT going to be the first temperature below 40?

"10/18/02: 39"

Oh? Quite the coincidence. :thumbsup: *Hint*(Winter 02-03)

DC could very well approach a minimum of 39 degrees, Sunday morning.

Temperature is a continuous curve. There is no possible way for it to go from 40 to 38 in an instant.

That said, this is a pretty petty argument in the first place. Who cares?

Anyways, I'll say 10/18.
