in overnight tonight. that's why we have round two to go. a dock under water. this is out towar chesapeake bay. you're saying your dock might go under water. >> my dock's been under water all day. >> this is down towards anap o husband. do not drive throughed throughed water. i cannot say this enough. flash flood watches and warnings are up all across the area. live digital doppler showg the rain across the area. heavier rain off toward the eastern shore.s. so we're going to watch out for that. this is a line right here that's formed down to the south and west and made its way out towards the east. frederick county, montgomery seeing rain. down towards prince william county. these will make your way towards fairfax county. then lht to moderate rain down toward calvert couny. just to the south of calverton and manassas, you'll see heavy

rain. this line did have a severe thunderstorm warning with it earlier. how much rain have we seen? over 4 1/2 inks in frederick. nearly 2 1/2 in clinton, maryland. 9 inches of rain there. annapolis over 7 inches. this is the sme area ta i think could see heaviest rain overnight tonight as well. flash flood watch in effect until 10:30 for the areas you see he highlighted, also a flash flood watch in effect for the entire area as we could see yet more rain. a tornado watch in effect until 7:00. i will not be surprised to see this extended and maybe even widened a little bit as the remnants of nicole do finally make their way on shore. 75 in clinton, 73 in sterling. quantico coming in at 76. here isround one. watch this moisture come on hrough. then a little bit of a break, then round two. here are the remnants of tropical storm nicole makg their way up from cuba and into

our area overnight tonight. the very heavy rain will make its way just around our area by 7:00 tomoow. then watch what happens. quickly moves to the north and east. we'll see clearing very quickly behind this storm. our winds wil shift very quickly out of the northwest. that will co us off. that will help to dr us off tomorrow and get some sunshine. before that, we've got a lot of rain to deal with. two to four inches in the corridor. to the east. maybe five more inches if it sets up this way like it did last night where we had storms moving over and over the same areas. as you get back to the west, we're talking much less in the way of rain here. so with round two, what can we expect? heavy rain. very windy conditions. another two to four inches of rain with winds gusting upwards of 40 miles per hour tonight. maybe an isolated tornado ortwo as well. this evening, cloudy skies, periods of rain, some of that will become heavy at times. 72 to 76. but overnight tonight into very early tomorrow morning. we see the heaviest rn, then

by 7:00, rain will be ending, cool, breezy, and as we move through the day tomorrow, clearing out. how about this? clouds early, maybe a shower early but then becoming mostly sunny. windy at times with those winds out of the northwest. then guesswhat? one really nice day, saturday. th why not have more rain come in on sunday and into monday? and that one as well could be a coastal system. so we're going to be watching that, too. i'm not expecting nearly as much rain with that one. >> busy days for you guys. >> very busy. we're running around a lite bit today. >> you sure are. thank you, doug. for first time tonight we're hearing from some of the youngest victims of yesterday's commuterus crash in bethesda. 11 ople were injured when the bus careened off a flyover ramp, crashed on to i-270 below. three siblings who were on board that bus are talking about their ordeal. aaron gilchrist reports. >> reporter: on a day trip from

that show that kids that carry heavier weights than wha we recommend are having more back pain issues and they're showing up in our clinics and even in emergency rooms with complaints of back pain. >> reporter: doctors recommend students only carry up to 15% of their body weight. we decided to find out just how heavy ross' backpack is. weighed in at 104 1/2 pounds. then he put on his pack which added 16 1/2 pounds. that's more than 15% of his weight, and it's a concern to his ,c@qhfymother. >> when they're going the 'nhe morning, there's a rush and they're rushin with their bags. >> reporter: experts say it's important for the backpack's weight to be distributed evenly. tt means not putting all the ight on one shoulder and avoid using totes or messenger bags. >> it should be fitted on both shoulders. shoulder straps that fit well and then preferably with a waist strap. >> reporter: it should not fall

more than four inches below the waist and the shoulder strap anchor points should be one to two inches below the top of the shoulders. so what are doctors dos to help students manage the weight? >> sometimes gethem into an exercise program to work on core strengthening, strengthening the trunk and abdominal muscles. for some kids who have had real medical iues with back problem, we'll write them a note that says they need a second set of books at home. >> reporter: at the end of the day -- >> when i take it off, it's a lot of relief to me because it like straightens up my back and it feels better than having it on. >> reporter: dr. blakemore told us she likes thoserolling backpacks with wheels, but most schools don't allow them because of safety reasons. they just get in the way. our mom suggests online reading for kids at home instead of lugging home the textbooks, leave them in the lockers if you can. >> that's an idea. >> but wearing it higher is really what you need to do.
