leon: well, an all too common sight around the area. drivers spinning out and losing control as water from the melting snow out there began to freeze up on the roadways overnight. but tonight, there is another concern from the snow piled up on the area. and the fear it combined with tomorrow's rain could bring flooding. northern virginia bureau chief jeff goldberg live in alexandria with a look at what is being done to prevent that situation since we have a heads up here. jeff: we do. by this point after the blizzard, we have seen the big mountains of snow all over the place. what happens is a lot of the pounds of snow come here in front of the storm drains. a lot of them are low-lying. if you have too much snow in front of the storm drain, rain

could hit it and lead to flooding or so-called ponding. all over alexandria today we did see storm drains. they were cleared out. the city doing a lot of work to make sure they are clear. but of course with as many storm drains as there are in alexandria in d.c. all over the place, some are inevitable covered from the show. the cities made a lot of efforts to plow the snow to the sides and keep them away from the storm drains but sometimes the snow gets piled up in front of the storm drain. as they continue to do their work, they are asking for residents around the city as the rain continues to approach, they are asking for people all over town to pitch in and try to move the snow from the drain. >> if they see something and they have a shovel nearby in a block of the house, they can clear the inlet. they don't need the clear the butter pass. but open the inlet that way as water comes down and enter there and it will be less of a problem. jeff: again, that is what they

are looking for. they know things are not perfect, especially if the rain comes in heavy. they are asking for help to make the situation better. coming up at 6:0, we'll head across the river to washington where residents feel good about how the city responded to the issues with the drainage issues. we did find a few situations where people say they are concerned. until then live in alexandria, jeff goldberg, abc7 news. alison: okay, thank you very much. weekend and a half after that historic blizzard most of us are ready for wenter to be over already. apparently that desire translates to the animal kingdom. take a look. >> potomac phil did not see his shadow. so it's going to be an early spring!

your favorite thing. this shows the world most famous groundhog punxsutawney phil also called for early spring with statin island chuck, and the south's general bouregard lee. only one, freddie, thinks there is six more weeks of winter. going rogue. leon: contrarian groundhog. alison: we want to know how much stock you put on the forecast. we have a poll on the facebook page. at last check it was a dead heat. you can weigh in for yourself right now. leon: dead heat. okay. that says a lot. alison: i know. doug: between all the critters and the old farmer's almanac we'll be out of work here soon. trying to compete. alison: i don't think so. doug: interesting to see what happens. nice thought. early spring is something that

would make everybody happy. leon: somebody has to make an groundhog app. alison: there probably already is. doug: don't give any ideas. we are in the 60's. a big change is coming. melting snow and heavy rain. let's get started the the coverage here at the moment it's gorgeous. look at the shot this morning from the nationals park. put h.d. weather bug camera in the time lapse modular the day to cap -- time lapse mode to capture blue skies. 49 at the ballpark. enough blue skies remain with the high clouds moving in. we are set up in many areas for another absolutely spectacular sunset tonight. the sun set at 5:28 this evening, i believe. so 15 minutes afterward it should be great. more clouds move in overnight. it will become overcast as well. that combining with the winds turning east and the southeast tonight will keep the temperatures mild. we are at 48 at reagan national. 43 at winchester. 45 in frederick.

baltimore at 47. 50 degrees now on the midshore. with the clouds and the southerly, it will stay mild. melting will continue through the wherever night as well. temperatures are mild across the mountains to the teeth of the frontal system developing. strong winds developing. 74 now. clouds and knoxville. 70 in nashville. 59 in charlotte. 60 in raleigh. we get rain and thunderstorm. gusty winds and mild temperatures. satellite and the radar shows the high thin clouds here. this is a mess down south. we have one, two, three, three, tornado watch boxes. there are a number of tornadoes. other spots there. when the whole zone comes eastward tomorrow. we get gusty winds and the rain and the heavy doingpours and the thunder but we don't think we have the right combination in the atmosphere

to produce the severe weather here. the future cast gives us timing moving through the day tomorrow. 11:00 tomorrow the showers are moving across the western zones here. we put it in motion for you. it's moving across i-81 and the blue ridge. that should shift quickly. we will see clearing before midnight tomorrow night. we have a nice string of days. we have been running the commuter models of the rainfall from the system. we run it and we get different numbers but it will wind up the samem average between one-and uninch of rain tomorrow. that with the additional snow melt and water from the melting snow will give us flooding potential in the metro area here. high 64 tomorrow. winds gusting at times to 20 miles per hour.

a lot of melting tomorrow. we get through seven days to see temperatures head the other way on thursday. we will see nationals park again, because i pressed the wrong button i am thinking. if you had the groundhog here, you could see the next seven days. alison: leon missed it yesterday. he had a groundhog on the set. i won't say if it's live or dead but it was here. leon: with doug, i could bet. doug: it hadn't moved in 30 years. i was a real groundhog. very pleasant. leon: i wonder what he had to say about you. moving on. still ahead at 5:00. memories that brings tears.

passion inside this gym. >> when it comes to crunch time, it's time to do what they do the most. positive energy. get on a roll. >> to be the best you have to beat the best. scott: making life memories together. it's really motivating. once you are a team, you work together as one. >> camaraderie. smiles. >> good job. >> and competition. scott abraham, abc7 sports. leon: how about that? montgomery county bocce championships will be played this saturday at paige brad high school. i love that. could have been a harris' heroes. >> it could have. leon: way to go, scott. still ahead here, like a scene from an old western. calm in a restaurant until a chair flies. then a melee takes place next. what sparked this scene caught on video in the district. alison: first, though, the district attorney who declined

separate civil case with cosby agrees. >> i find it a bit ironic that mr. cosby would seek to exclude evidence that he in fact gave qua lose to women -- quaaludes to women when that was the testimony. does he want to exclude the truth? leon: cosby was charged with drugging and sexually violating a former temple athletic department employee. alison: d.c. police are asking for your help to find individuals who were involved in a fight at a local restaurant. take a look at this. this happened in 1600 block of lamont street in northwest. surveillance video shows a suspect approaching a victim and then suddenly attacks him. that is when another suspect threw a chair at the victim. so then a massive fight breaks out. three more chairs are thrown. if you know anything about this, anyone involved, contact the police. leon: anheuser-busch taking departure from the normal line

while the d.c. council kept in place a ban on use of marijuana in private clubs it also voted unanimously to to create task force for how pot could be smoked communally without violating the laws from d.c. they say you must grow your own marijuana and use it at home but in the discussion they talk about private places, perhaps one in eight wards where people can smoke away from home. the idea some people don't want to smoke around their children and public housing residents are prohibited by federal law from smoking in their homes and could be facing eviction if they do. >> this legislation creates a task force. it doesn't rush into anything. >> proponents insist it does not violate congress restrictions. >> you must stay away from taxing marijuana, selling marijuana or reducing the

penalties to be in harmony with the congressional writer. sam: also today the council as part of a crime bill passed a measure that would give sometimens to up to -- stipends to up to 200 individuals who are considered higher risk not to commit crimes. richmond, california, tried this and said it resulted in a 77% drop of homicides there. so far mayor bowser has not signed off on this. the measure will be have to be passed a second time before it would be sent to the mayor's desk. reporting live from northwest life, sam ford, abc7 news. leon: thank you, sam. the number of the new cases of hiv in the district continues to decline. that according to a new report from the district of the columbia department of health. the report shows 396 new hiv cases in 2014. 29% drop off from 2013. 70% drop off from 2007 when the new cases were at the
