will bring the speed cameras in the county up to 22. once they are activated, violators will get warnings for the first 30 days and after that, $40 tickets will be issued. we're tracking the storms. let's get to bob in the weather center. bob? >> they ended the rain just end of columbia. that's the steady rain. you can see the activity now moving off quickly to the east/northeast. decent rain over harford county and eastern sections of baltimore county. but to the west of us, it's done except for a few lingering showers. all the heavy stuff off to the east as you can clearly tell by the very beautiful display on our live hd doppler radar. temperaturewise, we're down to 61. the barometer beginning to go

back up again. dew point is up to 59 now. it was up to 70. the temperature is only 61. tomorrow is going to be a pretty decent day. in the eastern shore, the showers will continue for a while longer. in elkton, 71 and low 70s at last report. some winds beginning to pick up from the west/northwest. in most areas, we see the west/northwest area. the front, showing some pressure of the great lakes, with the front into the appalachian mountains. the first line of storms this afternoon and then the second line with the front gave us active weather. the squall line that moved through this evening. you can see off to the east, clear skies. there's a lot of cold air coming aloft in the next couple of days. even though it will basically

be sunnier and drier, things heat up and we'll see maybe a brief shower sunday afternoon, monday afternoon, maybe even tuesday afternoon. cooler and drier conditions, below normal for the most part as we head through the first two days of june. kind of unusual. a few days ago, for the most part, it will be cooler and more pleasant. in the bay, 15 knots and a small advisory. back up in the mid 70s. so for the rest of tonight, showers and storms are ending gradually, but see some sunshine and 63: partly sunny to mostly breezy. that's high. 78 on sunday. could be a brief shower, 75 on monday and 73 tuesday. could be a brief shower and the same thing for wednesday. temperatures are running a little cooler than they should the first week or so. denise? >> thank you, bob.

well, let's just forget this day ever happened. mark with the sports report. >> in st. petersburg, they had a dome. a five-game losing streak hoping the turn of the calendar helps them turn their fortunes facing the tampa bay rays in florida. the teams beginning their series tied for first place in the american east division, but

shorthanded. but after surgery, he had a broken bone in his right hand. trouble on the first inning. luke scott, single with the bases loaded. both score. 3-0 tampa bay lead. they get more in that inning. hideki matsui gets a home run to deep right. schenn gets five runs in the first inning and didn't allow more. but that was more than enough for the rays because o's hitters had a hard time against rays starter david price. seven shutout innings had jones in one of the five strikeouts. o's failed to score in a game. they're shut out 5-0. the slumping o's lost nine of the last eleven games and fall to 2nd place behind the rays. game two of the series tomorrow. this is a reminder on masn tomorrow first pitch at 4:00.

brian mattis is the o's scheduled starter. something never done. he throws a no-hitter. david freese. strikes out and 8-0 history making victory. quite an accomplishment when you consider santana sat out all of last season after shoulder surgery. it's the third no hitter pitch in the majors this season. the regional play in the baseball regionals at the university of virginia but when it rains at a college game, major difference. in college, the players are also the grounds crew, so the virginia players got wet and dirty in their attempt to pull the tarp through the rain. they're earning their scholarship with a little extra work. >> not as smooth as our guys. >> but they're not professionals. they're college. >> did they play? >> no, they didn't. despite the effort. around and round it goes.

>> the obstacle he had to overcome to earn a spot in ,,,,,
