No record Thursday at BWI

There was a lot of talk yesterday about a record high temperature in Baltimore. But according to the numbers posted today by the National Weather Service, no records were broken here.

The high at Baltimore-Washington International Airport on Thanksgiving Day was 74 degrees. That fell two degrees short of the record set on Nov. 22, 1940.

That said, we did see new records for the date set at Washington's Reagan National Airport and out at Dulles International.

The high at National was 77 degrees yesterday before the front came crashing through. That beat the old record of 75 degrees, set on that date in 1979. The high at Dulles was 75, besting the 1979 record by two degrees.

The warm days of November appear to be over. The forecast calls for more seasonable highs in the 40s for the time being. No rain in sight until Monday. Enjoy the weekend.
