Same here. Upgrades have been a mixed bag. Most of the metal has been 75's.
BWI is far less convenient (to Washington) than the other choices.
It's entirely possible that folks have gotten fed up with the connection in ATL and are taking one of the WN non-stops. Or the reshuffling of the schedule has caused the flight connections to be worse than the other choices.
Or the market has become so price sensitive that folks just aren't flying.... (from my house, it's nearly 100 miles RT to BWI.... with fuel prices where they are, it's more costly to drive all the way up there).
