With notorious heat and humidity, Washington D.C. has never been the most pleasant place in the summer. Worst of all is getting stuck in some god-forsaken space that is crowded, poorly ventilated, and lacking in air conditioning.

Bad news for all you Red Liners out there. These are just the conditions you should expect for the next few days in the Dupont and Farragut North stations. According to the Post, a broken pipe under Connecticut Avenue has knocked out the air conditioning to both stations for at least the next few days. Worse, repairs will involve digging up sections of roadway to find the problem, which could mean lane closures along some busy streets. The forecast for tomorrow is relatively mild, but by Friday, those tunnels could be hotter than a sauna by lunchtime.
