possibility of icy conditions before we change the rain. we'll talk more about this. that's straight ahead. it's friday. you just want to get home. >> mike masco has a check on the road conditions. how is it looking? >> it looks pretty good. good evening but looks are going to be deceiving. that 32-degree line is snaking through the state. i want to show you what's going on. yes, it's raining right now, but, as you can see, when the rainfalls into the cold surfaces, and this is a good example, it freezes on contact and that's the concern. i do think that's going to be a common theme where anyrain that develops -- any rain that

develops will freeze on contact. this is looking pretty good. again, it's the roadways we're concerned with. from ellicott city to reisterstown. also, by the way, we'll lose that sun angle, the sun starting to get stronger as we head toward the early spring months. we're losing that sun angle. that will allow for it to froze quicker. are we done with winter? cresh's done with winter -- everybody's done with winter. this is what they had to say. all right. we'll bring it back live. they said a lot of things. again, it's cold out here. it's raw out here. now it's raining and that's the concern for tonight. if you're going to go out, maybe keep it indoors, that movie,

we all want to be good drivers mostly and we often think being safe on the road will lead to a discount on auto insurance but john matarese said someone with more accidents may be paying less than you do.

>> reporter: insurance companies have told for years that good drivers get discounts. you hear that in radio and tv commercials all the time. you might be stunned by a new report that good drivers are paying higher premiums than those with accidents. >> do you own a home? >> yes. >> dois count. are you going to buy online? >> yes. >> discount. >> reporter: in a new report it says some of the largest auto insurance charge higher premiums to safe drivers. why in the report explains that accident history is just one factor that goose your smirns premium this. claim that is lower income drivers often pay more, which leads to the doesn't that stink file. a 33-year-old single woman hop rents an apartment with no

degree would pay a higher premium than married woman with a degree and a house even though the married woman had a chargeable accident. you might say doesn't that stink? many use your job and education to predict your chance of an accident and not just your driving record. if you suspect you may be paying too much contact your agent or use an online insurance comparison site like insure.com. that way you can see what other companies offer you and you don't waste your money. i'm john matarese. all right. start off with a look outside. obviously, the sun is down. the day is getting longer. temperatures continue to fall sharply. so the type of showers that we saw earlier today like here in bel air, the light nuisance showers, well, better chances that the wet areas will become icier, especially on the

elevated surfaces. a quick check of the temperatures, you can see 32 or colder west of the chesapeake chesapeake bay. rain across southern maryland here. temperatures safely above freezing. push toward the i-95 corridor. you can see radar indicated mixed showers. this is light, very light, but how much freezing rain does it really take to make for a dangerous icy overpast. one little burst is all that it takes. that's why we're saying take extra caution. as you head further south down toward florida, it's all one long boundary and more moisture forming will run up the coast.

it could make for decent rain tomorrow afternoon but initially early in the morning it could make for brief freezing rain. baltimore north and west and we'll go above freezing med day. northern baltimore county, carroll county and pennsylvania the southern part of that state. freezing conditions. you can see the freeze line moved south and east and is pushing toward annapolis and the chesapeake bay. it's critical one or two degrees, makes such a difference. he of more significant rain toward daybreak. if you have early saturday morning travel plans, you need to use extra caution, especially on the western and northern part of our state. things will change over. we'll clear out tomorrow evening. temperatures will be in the 40s. no problems. but early night into early

tomorrow morning that's where we'll have some concerns. that light shower action giving way to significant precipitation that would impact us. remember, the key thing with black ice, it can look like wet roads. you can be driving on a wet paved surface. that's where you skid out of control. you have to be careful. here we go, 31. more rain and ice possible. brief freezing rain going to sleet. tomorrow night we're dry. we're clear. i think we're fine. the morning hours not so much. here we go the next few days, you can see the sun and milder early next week. that's how things play out. sunday's oscars ceremony will celebrate 50 years of james bond but there would not be an iconic superstar without the villains.
