70'ss from haigers town east. temperatures in bel air right around 69 to lower 70's across the way. winds coming out of the south continue to pull in the warmer air. that's going to be the case for us as we head into sunday as well. starting on monday and even more so on tuesday, that's when things really will change, and this is why. the big picture showing high pressure in control right now. we saw a few showers and thunderstorms just north of the mason dickson earlier. we've got a cool front headed our way. this is going to be just a rain event, but it is going to combine with some of that moisture from what is now tropical depression karen, because that moisture is going to feed right into the mid- atlantic and that's going to

work along with that cold front that's going to pass through. it's going to help to enhance the amount of rainfall we'll see. we'll see anywhere from about one to three inches in some spots in the mid-atlantic. but for sunday, that rain is going to hold off, at least for the bulk of the day. we could see a few scattered showers as we head into the latter part of the day, but definitely more in the way of at least cloud cover. here's how things are going to play out heading into monday. the cold front is going to pass through later on monday. it's going to bring us rainfall, with the heaviest probably getting into the area about monday afternoon and evening, sticking around through the overnight. now, by tuesday, things should start to clear out right after the morning, and we'll be drying out as well, if the model is verified. your bay temperature at 70 degrees. this is what our high will be as we head into your tuesday, wednesday and thursday, or at least in the lower 70's. winds out of the southeast, approximately 5 knots. 64 tonight, mostly cloudy, warm and humid. clouds will be on the increase. heading into tomorrow, around 86, very warm and humid, with

clouds and sun. but then you're going to get relief, if you don't like this heat. but monique does. she's not gonna like the rest of the week. 80 on monday. then the showers will start to dry out by tuesday afternoon. evening, 72. 72 on wednesday, keeping cloud cover in the forecast. 70 on thursday. sunshine returns but it's going to be a much more seasonable forecast as we head into the latter part of the workweek. monique, sorry to tell you that. coming up next in sports -- >> what's wrong with the ravens' running game? i'm mark viviano. the purple birds try to ,,,,,,

welcome back, everyone. tonight is the fan sports report. it was the game threatened by

the government shutdown. but a record crowd filled the stadium. the midshipmen trailed in the half, but then in the third quarter, brown goes 38 yards for the touchdown. that put navy ahead, 14-10, and they never looked back. reynolds scored three touchdowns. this one in the fourth quarter capped a big second half for navy as they win it 28-10. they are now 3-and-1 on the year. the undefeated terps had a rough afternoon at florida state. it was especially rough for starting quarterback c.j. brown. he had to leave the game after taking this hit. no word on the extent of his injuries. maryland had no answers for jameis winston. seminoles beat the terps 63-0. over at towson, the tigers

denver and buffalo. trying to get a road win in miami where the dolphins are a slight favorite. they're going to run into ellerbe. he left baltimore. regardless, ray rice and the ravens need to get their running game going. so far, the ravens rank near the bottom of the nfl in rushing. that's uncharacteristic for an offense built on the run game. joe flacco is happy to pass it more, if that's what it takes. back to you. >> thank you, mark. and if you don't have a plain ticket to miesm, you can watch the ravens and dolphins right here on wjz. our live coverage starts tomorrow afternoon at 1:00. and we'll be right back. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
