| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | The most hottest and humid air mass of the summer so far occupied the Maryland Eastern Shore from the 25th through the 27th. This air mass had as its origin the desert southwest in the United States and a ridge of high pressure aloft brought this air mass east with it through the rest of the country. The hottest and most humid day was the 27th. This was the hottest day of the year so far for most places and the highest temperatures seen in many areas since August of 2002. The combination of high temperatures and humidity levels pushed afternoon heat indices to between 105 and 110 degrees on the 27th. The PJM Interconnection recorded a world record for electricity usage on the 26th: 135,000 megawatts. The PJM coordinates the movement of electricity in Maryland and twelve other states from North Carolina to Illinois. On the 27th, PJM lowered voltage to certain customers by five percent due to the stress on the high voltage lines. The hot weather ended abruptly as a strong cold front moved through the region during the evening of the 27th. Highest temperatures included 96 at the Baltimore-Washington International Airport and Stevensville (Queen Anne's County). |
