didn't tell the alumni that the school is in deep debt sooner. the school is in debt by $600,000. >> i think it they were that far in debt, it should have been been maid known to not only the parents but to the alumni. >> reporter: the alumni hope this works. >> i think it's a long shot. but i think it shows the interest and support from the community. >> reporter: but the arch archdiocese says keeping towson catholic is unlikely. because even if it had enough money, the school is still plagued by low enrollment. as for the court injunction, sean cane told eyewitness news, the archdiocese hasn't been served with anything yet and reserves comment until it's had a chance to review it. >> reporter: the archdiocese says they broke a contract with the parents and students who already paid for the upcoming school year. but the archdiocese only about 40 of the school's 160 families

have prepaid their tuition. and some of them have already received a refund check. >> the injunction was filedded yesterday in baltimore county circuit court. things are getting a little brown. so we wouldn't mind some rain. it's going to feel more like july. and finally might see some needed rain. dew point is up, compared to where it was. 58. humidity, 38%. south/southwest winds at 7. barometer holding steady.

let's take a look at these temps. the dew points getting close to 60. typically in july. we'd had dew points in the 60s or even higher when it's really humid. 90 out in cumberland. 80 in ocean city. we're at 86 now. also, washington, the dew point. 40s and 58. tomorrow, i expect the dew point to be at least 65. it's going to feel a lot stickier tomorrow than it has. recently, 79 in bel air. 84 in westminster. and columbia, coming in at 85 degrees. southwest winds right now. that will continue to bring in additional moisture in the atmosphere. you get additional moisture this time of year with the sun coming out. that's when you get a chance of getting some pop-up showers. out to the west, there is a frontal boundary. most are seeming to die out right now as they head to the

southwest of us. this front, however, will approach us. and as it approaches tomorrow, chances will increase. the front is going to kind of get stalled out and get close to the region. late friday and saturday. and by saturday, another chance of more showers. because as the front stalls out across virginia. this low pressure expected to head up toward our region. and that would be on saturday. so we do have chances between now and saturday night, of getting some much-needed rain. i know it's been dry this month. the ground is really dry. so we do need shower activity. and we have a chance of getting some finally maybe tomorrow. and a better chance on saturday. friday, probably not that much of a chance. southwest winds tomorrow. may gust to 20 knots. and they've issued a small craft advisory late tonight through tomorrow morning. forecast for tonight. let's call it a lot milder. but 10 degrees warmer than last night. 68 and partly cloudy sky. tomorrow, warm and muggy, compared to what we've seen. may get up to 90. and late in the afternoon, scattered showers.

and recently local heavy rains in any of those thunderstorms that do develop tomorrow. most of the activity, i think the strongest would be east of the maryland region. and across new jersey. >> thank you, bob. well, we are celebrating a very special anniversary here on television hill. don scott has been with wjz 13 for 35 years. his partner for most of those years, marty bass explains how you can take part in the celebration. >> what should he be named for putting up with marty bass for 25 of those 35 years. first thing in the morning? multiple choice for you here. a, a saint. b, united nations ambassador. my vote. the world can use all the help they can get. or c, wjz 13 general manager for a day. we can call him don newman?
