BALTIMORE — Happy Labor Day everyone! We are cooking in terms of temperatures. The record today of 96 degrees was broken and we likely break records into the next couple of days. The stretch of high heat temperatures will continue over the firs half of the week thanks to the high pressure dome that will sit over us. Temperatures will be in the upper 90s with tons of sunshine and calm winds. For context, our daytime highs for this time of year is right around 83° so this puts us well into the heatwave category. A cold front begins to slide through the Mid-Atlantic and finally break the high heat with some rain showers and slightly cooler temperatures. This trend will continue through Friday and the weekend as temperatures return closer to average.
I hope you all have a great day!
