announcer: you're watching "abc7 news at 4:00". on your side. president obama: congress still needs to act. the folks in this room will not rest until congress does.

[applause] jonathan: well, tonight, president obama will make his first appearance to push for change with guns especially since announcing the executive action on gun control. he is holding a town hall meeting on the gun control plan at george mason university in fairfax. senior political reporter scott thuman live on campus right now. who is the president really trying to win over there? scott: well, jonathan, as you heard the comment a second ago he would like to win over congress. but they have been reluctant to move any of the legislation he has been proposing so he is taking the message to a broader audience going on national television. hoping that he can perhaps sway voters that might show up in polls next november and follow with the democratic white house. that at least solidifies some of the chaínges he is making right now. jonathan: does it benefit the president to do this on a college campus? can all of this still be undone? scott: yeah, that is what is

interesting, jonathan. so often we have seen in the president's seven years when he wanted to really kind of feel like he is on the home turf or has a riled up audience, he goes to the college campus. the success. formula for him to get the message out. energizes the youthful base of voters. it's interesting this time around the gun issue has narrowed as far as it used to be how long younger voters were much more for gun control. 70%. less for the gun rights. you talk about whether or not this can be undone. absolutely. this is an executive action on the gun measurements. that means that the next president could come in and undo it all if he or she so chooses to do so. a lot of the republicans so far vow to do that if they

win. jonathan: scott thuman, thank you very much. appreciate that. well, after a mild start to winter, the chill now is starting to definitely set in more than what we have seen. alison: yes. chief meteorologist doug hill is here to check on the forecast. doug: it's not bitterly but more where we should be average temperature wise here. case and point, reagan national. 42 degrees. the background seen from the rooftop at arlington boulevard. a cloudy day. no drizzle right now. we had patches earlier in the afternoon. temperatures holding steady. 40, 41, 42. those are the common numbers around the area. 41 degrees in the leesburg and frederick. 45 right now in winchester. overnight we will keep the clouds. but all day long the areas west, especially west of 81 have been all day. milder.
