TASSELMYER. WELL, THE SUNSHINE GOT US TO THE 80 DEGREE MARK TODAY IN MANY LOCATIONS AROUND BALTIMORE. HIT 82 OFFICIALLY DOWN AT BWI MARSHALL. IT’S ONLY THREE DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL NOW, SO NOT ALL THAT UNUSUAL THIS TIME OF YEAR TO HAVE A NICE 80 DEGREE DAY, BUT MUCH WARMER THAN IT WAS JUST A COUPLE DAYS AGO WHEN THE TEMPERATURES WERE ONLY IN THE 50S AND THE RAIN WAS COMING DOWN. BUT THAT WARM, MUGGY AIR THAT MOVED IN TODAY IS SETTING THE STAGE FOR POSSIBLE STRONG OR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS.
