Baltimore Area Ties Record High Set Nearly 90 Years Ago

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- Clear skies and record highs are bringing a warm up to the Baltimore area Tuesday.

BWI Marshall and Reagan National airports both hit 76 degrees -- tying the record high for this date set in 1930. The average high is 46 degrees.

WJZ's Meg McNamara says Baltimore has seen a nearly 30-degree increase in the past 24 hours, and a significant change since this past weekend.

BWI was covered in two inches of snow just three days ago as a wintry mix moved across the region, slamming some parts of Maryland with five inches of snow.

Spring is just around the corner -- exactly one month away.
