The Washington Post knows about the 1930 heatwave. Unfortunately their editorial board doesn’t seem to read their own newspaper.
“By the end of the summer of 1930, approximately 30 deaths in Washington were blamed on the heat and thousands more had died nationwide. In Washington, there has never been another summer with a heat wave that has equaled the summer of 1930.”
