that is the most important thing and people outside enjoying the sunshine. what a perfect day it was outside toy. hopefully everybody that came to town to visit our city had a great visit. 77 was the high. that's also the current temperature after a 55-degree start. tomorrow, at least one of the high ss going to deaden the water. dulles airport, the record for tomorrow only 78 degrees set back in 2001. the record at reagan national tomorrow, 90 degrees set in 1919, but that's also important because it's the latest wee ever reached 90 degrees in the calendar year, so we are going to make a good run at it tomorrow, but i think we'll fall short. 77 right now. winds have come back around to the southwest at 8 miles per hour. a nice easterly breeze that kept us out of the 80s for today, but temperatures, which are still in

the low 80s in winchester, that is coming back towards the washington area and maryland as well. wouldn't think it today, but we've had a couple of thundershowers out of southern pennsylvania through frederick county, maryland. they're falling apart down towards clarksburg. 99% of us, dry for tonight. as high pressure is in charge, it's going to start to inch that front back up to the north, so we'll be o the warm side tomorrow with temperatures, mid to upper 80s. you might touch 90 degrees tomorrow. at national airport, i don't think we're going to quite make it, but it will be close. may kick off an isolated shower tomorrow and tuesday as the cooler air comes back in.

not any good color around here yet. one or two showers this evening. mild for october. tomorrow, sunny and hot. clouds building late in the day. maybe a shower. upper 80s tomorrow. near 80 on tuesday. only near 70 on wednesday as a little bit of october finally comes back in. a lot of unsettled weather. no guarantees that next weekend will be as nice. coming up in sports, we will head

you said during the break what we've been saying all afternoon. they got luy. >> breakfast sponsored by lucky charms cereal. luck counts. think of all the times when the redskins were unlucky. washington's third down conversion left a lot to be desired. just four of 12 third downs, but when it mattered most, the offense turned pungent, seing the cheese heads home packing. >> everybody come together today. come together, we stay together. make plays -- >> donovan mcnabb, maybe a little beatles before the game. come together. not here.

snapped to mcnabb. goes right through his hands. sacked by clay matthews. that was just a disaster. ensuing packer's possession. ndoff goes to brandon jackson. right up the gut. how to make a tackle.com. logon now. 71-yard gainer. it would lead to a touchdown. packers take a 7-0 lead. all right. fourth quarter now. redskins trail 13-3. going for it on fourth and two. mcnabb. back to pass. little pressure here rolls out, looking down the sideline for anthony armstrong and no. not even close. redskins turned it over on downs. very next redskins' possession. they try it again. mcnabb, little more smooth this time. up top to anthony armstrong. this is beautiful.

48-yard touchdown. the first of armstrong's career. the redskins are back in it. th cut the lead to three. we got a ball game. seven seconds to play now. tied at 13. naan crosby on from 53 yards out. for the game-winner. off the left post, no good. mark shanahan on the sidelines. oh, yeah. that close. we're going to overtime. in ot, aaron rodgers out of the sh shotgun. usually good. the defense played big ti, keeping the redskins in the game. landrieu was down where he caught the ball, but the redskins have the ball. graham ganoe with a chance to be a hero. come on, buddy. i won't call you weird if you make this kick.

from 33 yards, ball game right down the middle. the redskins come back to win it 16-13 in overtime. how about that? they improve to 3-2 after winning their second straight game. for more, we go to fedexfield. dan, you had the tweet of the day. the skins were like the new kids the block hanging tough. >> that was my favorite band. >> i figured that. i didn't think he was going to tell the whole world. >> that isinteresting. >> you know what i heard after this game in the locker room, a player told me that at halftime, inside the locker room, theguys really lit it up. they were upset. didn't want this to end badly. so they talked about how important it was to go back out with strength and really, when you look offensively at what they did, coach shanahan said they allowed donovan to pass the

ball to establish a rhythm. >> didyou know this is the first time since week seven and eight this team has won two games in a row. >> we played good football, but get to a point in these games where we can't finish. eventually, this is one of those games where it turned. finally, missed field goal, we was able to get the ball back. just finish the game. >> when you're in the huddle, guys just waiting to make that big play. i think anthony really got things going for us, which led to a lot of big passing plays for us. >> we've been confident that we can win every game. coming into the locker room, there's been zero doubt that we were going to win.

to continue to be good, we got to build, get better and everyone knows our schedule, how tough it's going to be for us. >>nthony armstrong said red bull kept him up in the air a little while on that catch. >> the redskins now 3-2. they face the colts next week, guys. >> thanks. that will do it. we'll have more at 11:00. >> thank you, sir. we will see you back here tonight after the san francisco 49ers take othe philadelphia eagles. that's the news. good nigts. synctaxes 60 percent. property
