Since it looks like you already live in the Washington area, I'd say give PHX a try. Change of pace and a good starting location to see some of the west coast for short getaways. And you'll get used to the heat quickly enough. Then again, IAD is probably easier for you since you're already there.
yeah if you're outside it's not TOO bad, but it still feels like i've stuck my head in an oven. I lived in Glendale.. so I've gotten a couple good summers of PHX under my belt.
I'd try PHX in the spring it's from Feb and it's pretty pleasant right now.
