running, throwing and catching and having fun. >> it's awesome. it's my first time in new orleans. i can brag to my friends i'm in new orleans. >> reporter: as parentsen concerned about the impact of concussions, some are adding flag football as a varsity sport. >> abc2 is always working for you. we created a great concussion resource guide. it's got everything you need to know, how to prevent them and what to do if you think your child is dealing with one. just head to abc2news.com/concussion. in tonight's health alert, a wounded warrior who lost all four limbs in iraq said he is looking forward to driving and swimming with his new arms. doctors performed a rare double harm transplant on brendan marrocco last month. it could make several years before the 26-year-old soldier can fully use his new arms but

researchers found no difference in the group based on breakfast or dinner timing. late lunchers were more likely to eat less at breakfast or skip it all together. >> can't skip breakfast. take a look outside. days are getting longer. temperatures still almost 60 at bwi. so you get idea here. conditions definitely on that mild side here has they have been all day. statistics for you. 64 degrees out at bwi. the high today, the all time record 75 back in the mid-1970s. we did not push that record today, but we were still 22 degrees above average. that was in the just in baltimore but around much of the state pushing 70 in east son, 70 in sals about ri. 69 in dulles. so, again, a very unseasonably

mild kind of day. all in a south, southeasterly breeze. the one effect is for areas right along the bay, including annapolis. you didn't get quite as warm, in the upper 50s is where you were stuck in baltimore. that's where we sit in the upper 50s. eventually the mid-40s but we're back to 5 by daybreak. -- to 50 by daybreak. mid-60s even. take a look at the numbers where we think the warmest weather will be in the heart of the season. we could touch 70 degrees and how about harford county where you're in the mid to upper 60s right back there tomorrow and perhaps slightly warmer in spots. so it's going to depend on where you are and what your wind is doing. i think a lot of it could be pushing highs that are several degrees above where we are. overall not a noise day.

the clouds are rolling. tomorrow it will get breezier. this is a major line of rain set to arrive late tomorrow night. after the evening rush hour it will get heavy and steady. you won't see too much in the way of flooding. there could be snow flurries late thursday and into the morning on friday. so what a change that will be after this big warm surge. colder air will be moving our way. let's get a look at the next weather maker. 42 tonight. tomorrow in the upper 60s with rain showers plate in the day -- late in the day tomorrow night. mild weather continues until we get into thursday. temperatures dropping as the cold shot arrives. as we look at weekend cold upper 30s. looks dry for super bowl sunday. kelly? >> looking good. >> as apple's stock struggles, they announced a high powered
