Well above normal temperatures for this time of the year are expected for a second day in a row for the Northeast and Delmarva region on Thursday. As an upper level ridge keeps cooler air to the north and southwesterly winds bring warmer air from the south, temperatures will continue to feel more like summer time weather than early March.
On Wednesday, several Northeastern states observed record breaking temperatures with major cities such as Albany, Boston, New York City, Baltimore, and Philadelphia setting new records with highs in the mid 70’s to low 80’s. Temperatures are expected to challenge records again on Thursday, with Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington D.C. most likely to observe temperatures ranging from the mid 70’s to low 80’s, well above normal for this time of the year. North of these cities, warm air will continue to stretch across the Northeast, although not quite warm enough to break any records.
