Weather Quiz


Tornado in Oklahoma  (Source: NOAA)
True or False.

There has been a significantly higher than average number of tornadoes during the first half of 2015 across the United States.





Answer to Weather Quiz question from July 8.

C.  106 degrees.   

The hottest temperature on record in the Nation’s Capital occurred twice: on July 20, 1930 and on August 6, 1918.  Ironically, those measurements both came before National Airport opened in 1941.  Since then, weather observations for Washington, D.C. have been made at National Airport.  Baltimore’s hottest temperature on record is 107 degrees.
