will start out in the upper 30s tomorrow. and i think we will see windchills in the low 30s with a 5 to 10-mile-an-hour wind. and then by 6:00, here's future weather. and here comes our next system. it's going to be a fast mover and it may be in here by 6:00 tomorrow evening with rain. and a very cool rain at that. but already look at the snows back towards the mountains. back towards blacksburg and shenandoah valley. watch what happens through the night and into the day on saturday. this is 11:30 in the morning. very cold air. a lot of snow back towards western portions of virginia and west virginia, western maryland. but then rain. and i think this will be mostly a rain event for most of us. i'm talking about a lot of rain. maybe an inch to an inch and a half of rain around the washington, d.c., area and points to the east. it will be rainy. it will be cold on saturday and it will be rather windy. the snow. when do we have a chance to see that snow? as the storm system intensifies and pulls away. look how close the snow gets to the washington, d.c. area.

around 6:00, 7:00 at night and i think even toward the east you may see a few flakes. on sunday, it's just going to be cold and we will see some sunshine. who is going to see what? again, a very tough forecast. but this is my early call right now. i'm thinking 3 to 6 inches around i-81 to the north and west. maybe more here. this is what we're really going to have to watch out for. 1 to 3 including westminster toward frederick, western loudoun county. front royal and along the front range here of the blue ridge. in the washington, d.c., metro area, less than an inch in most of montgomery, most of howard county, fairfax county, eastern loudoun, prince william and fauquier. less than an inch here and down to the south and east, just a few flakes into southern maryland as that storm begins to exit. but these numbers will change. so you want to make sure you stay with us during the day tomorrow as we will have more numbers for you. tomorrow morning, partly cloudy. a chilly start. possible freeze to the north. there's a frost advisory up there. 32 to 42 degrees overnight.

so tomorrow morning, you know you'll need that coat. increasing clouds on your friday afternoon. much cooler with late day showers if not rain. 50 to 53 degrees. here's your next four days showing a very cold rain. 43 on saturday. it's going to be brutal on saturday. windchills around 35, 36 with that rain. 53 on sunday and then increasingly better as we head into the middle of next week. tuesday and wednesday, right now temperatures look like 60 degrees. once again, saturday if you have plans, you really want to stay tuned to this forecast. >> it's looking better for the trick-or-treaters by monday? >> monday i think will be fine. and the roads in most areas i don't think will be a problem unless you get well to the west. it's not going to be a storm that's crippling in our region. >> okay. thank you, doug. still to come -- if you were a millionaire, would you rather live in maryland or hawaii? >> duh. >> sports. ca
