| episode_narrative | A sprawling area of high atmospheric pressure became anchored over the western Atlantic for several days. Circulation around the high brought an unencumbered flow of tropical air from the Caribbean region into all of Maryland for a 2 1/2 day period beginning around dawn on the 6th and continuing until around noon on the 9th. A new record high temperature was set at Hagerstown (MDZ003) on the 8th; the record was tied on the 6th. More interestingly, temperatures remained above 55 degrees for over 48 hours, spanning two mornings when the normal low temperatures were some 35 degrees colder!After nine days, the mean temperatures across central and western Maryland were between 15 and 20 degrees above normal - more like April than early January. |
