to start with snow but then what? >> yeah and that's the big question jim, is when is this going to change from snow over to ice over to rain and then when does it finally move out? we know the snow moves in during the day tomorrow and that's why we have the w in effect for i-95 including all of southern maryland back to the west including faulkier county culpeper county all of montgomery county and parts of loudoun county. to the west, it is a winter storm warning so, grir down in waldorf, leonardtown, a annapolis, this will be snow to quickly back to ice, back to the west mostly snow. snow sleet, freezing rain we're watching for with accumulating snow and we think it will accumulate fairly fast maybe a tenth of an inch of ice especially in those warning areas. what are we going to be seeing? nothing right now. that storm system with the cold air in place is bringing snow all the way down towards atlanta. that's something they don't see very much. that whole system moves our way, so does the warm air. and that's why this storm is going to be a tough one to forecast. much more for you coming up at

around 6:15 including our latest totals in just a minute. >> thank you, doug. the mix of snow ice, and rainmaking it very difficult for road crews to prepare for this storm. maryland will have trucks out early saturday morning, but they can't pretreat because the brine would freeze in these low temperatures. virginia is calling in its crews by midnight tonight and says 1,400 trucks will be on the roads by noon tomorrow. and plows in d.c. will start rolling out by 7:00 tomorrow morning. a fleet of 200 trucks will be on the roads all day. broken water mains, they're popping up all over the area. this one happened today in prince george's county. there's been a spike in ruptured pipes out there. it was so cold inside one county school today that the students kept their hats and colts on. our bureau chief, tracee wilkins, is in bladensburg with more on that. tracee? >> reporter: coat hat, scarve they were freezing cold inside of that building and we're freezing cold outside as well. as you said it's causing these

water pipes to burst all over the area. this one here in bladensburg, they've been working really hard on to try and get fixed as soon as possible pap few hundred customers without water and then they have it then they don't as they continue the repairs here. just been a very difficult day dealing with all of this cold. >> too cold to do my work. can't even focus. >> reporter: he was one of a number of students to call home complaining about how cold it was inside of the high school today. >> i came to get them because of the temperature, because they both were very cold and reached out to me and i came to the school to feel the temperatures myself. >> reporter: she says her son was not exaggerating. it was really cold. >> the kids are complaining, staff is complaining, everybody's wearing coats. people are inside looking like this. >> we're doing the best we can as a school district to make sure we cope with these historic low temperatures. >> reporter: prince george's closed four other schools due to heater maintenance issues today but chose to keep gwynn park

open. >> we had optimal temperatures this morning, it dipped we made our repair and now we're getting it back to that temperature. >> reporter: they say it's another result of this extremely cold weather. >> we'll be working through the weekend with this next storm coming through to make sure that when students return on monday that we also have good temperature in all of our classrooms and all of our schools. >> reporter: so they're going to be monitoring these heating systems throughout the weekend again to make sure that all of the schools are warm and ready to go. if not, parents may be hearing more about some closures possibly next week. behind me here they're still working on this water main. folks are driving around. they're diverting traffic away from this hole in the ground. and from what i understand more than 30 water main breaks the wssc is work ong right now. live in bladensburg, tracee wilkins, news4. i've ban lawyer for 25 years and sometimes juries get it wrong and i believe with all my heart that they got it wrong in this case. >> tragic sad, and puzzling.

that's how a federal judge described maureen mcdonnell's behavior in the corruption case against her and her husband. today virginia's former first lady was sentenced to a year and a day in prison but like her husband, the she'll stay free on bond through the appeal process. news4's david culvert joins us live from the federal court in richmond with more. hi david. >> reporter: hi there, doreen. after two sentencing hearings and what was a vigorous six-week trial, today judge james spencer admitted that he was puzzled by maureen mcdonnell's defense. paraphrasing here he said first they throw mom under the bus, then they throw mama off the train. but today the defense did a 180 compared to what their trial defense to portray a different maureen. the maureen mcdonnell walking out of court today with a child at each arm was described by her eight character witnesses as loving and naive, a change from the nearly vilified former first

lady both defense ls painted during trial. >> only today to do this almost 180 and call her a very simple person who is happiest whes sitting at home with sweat pants. >> reporter: judge james spencer agreed telling the court, "mrs. mcdonnell's behavior was puzzling and even at times bizarre. it was difficult to get to the heart of who mrs. mcdonnell truly is." in her own words today she said she was sorry for letting johnnie williams into their lives. "the venom has poison midmarriage, my family and the commonwealth that i love. i'm the one who opened the door and i blame no one but myself." before ruling, judge spencer says there seems to have been a downward spiral in sync with her husband's rise in politics but the judge added she respected the role of mother and tried to be a good mother. she sacrificed as a wife. the former governor was also in court to support his wife giving her a kiss on the cheek twice. remember their defense was that of a broken marriage. >> i've been a lawyer for 25

year and sometimes juries get it wrong, and i believe with all my heart that they got it wrong in this case. and we look forward to pursuing our appeal aggressively. >> i they lot of people think that this appeal actually does have a fighting chance far more than a normal appeal in a federal court. >> reporter: so you may wonder when and where the mcdonnells could be going to prison. our news4 i-team scott mcfarlane he is here in richmond with me and he does a breakdown for you on our nbc washington app that explains that possible time line for their prison ahead. live in richmond tonight, david culvert, news4. the sentence of one year and one day for maureen mcdonnell could actually be better than if she were sentenced to one year. federal sentences longer than a year can be reduce ld by up to 54 days with good behavior. if maureen mcdonnell had been sentenced to year or less she would not be eligible for that

reduction. tonight nearly a million people are being told to wait to file their 2014 tax return. the obama administration says 800,000 people who signed um under healthcare.gov got incorrect tax information. the senior administration official says they'll receive corrected information by the first week of march. the white house says 95% of the people who suffered the impact of this mistake have not yet filed. the treasury department will send special instructions to those 50,000 who have already submitted their taxes. the justice department is fighting a federal judge's decision to block president obama's executive action on immigration. the president's order would protect millions of immigrants from deportation. the white house says paperwork seeking a stay of that judge's decision will be filed by monday and the justice department will also file a separate appeal. the judge's ruling came in response to a lawsuit file bade coalition of states led by

texas. rudy giuliani was once the mayor of new york. he is also a former republican presidential candidate. he provoked a political uproar on wednesday night when he said president obama does not love the united states. white house press secretary josh earnest gave the first official on-camera response to that today. >> it's sad to see when somebody who's attained a certain level ofe and evened a admiration tarnishes that legacy so thoroughly pip think really the only thing i feel is i feel sorry for rudy yule. ny today. >> one question might be whether he's tarnished or burnished his legacy. "meet the press" moderator chuck todd has thoughts on that. is it either one or does it even matter? >> i hate to say, i mean i'm sort of like should it even matter. he's not relevant in the debate in the political debate anymore, and, you know, this does feel like because he's the former

mayor of new york city we're give it extra attention. if this were the former mayor of wichita, kansas i don't think we'd give it the same level of attention. what i've been surprised at is it's breaking down partisan lines. you see plenty of republicans not denouncing what giuliani did, plenty of conservatives that say -- almost cheering him on. it was sort of a rhetorical punch at the president if you want to call it that. and, you know, it's just a reminder there certainly is a pocket inside the conservative movement that thinks that they believe the president is too critical of the united states or goes overseas too much and criticizes certain things. and they believe this. so, you know i think it sort of puts giuliani out of the mainstream and more sounding like another new yorker donald trump, rather than sort of the guy who was america's mayor. >> but the president seems like the president's refusal to use the word islamic terror -- >> that's the thing, got into this weird debate. first of all, president bush and president obama have both always

gone out of their way, we're not at war with islam, not at war with islam. i think there are some people who are staying that the white house is going too far in trying to not say this is islamic extremism, but semantics aside, it seems like everybody is taking their eye off the reel issue, which is how are we going to stop isis. the real issue is there's too many mainstream muslim countries and leaders that have tolerated this radical strand. they've not done enough to defeat it. maybe everybody ought to be channelling that frustration at them and at moderate sunni nations, at the saudi arabias of the world who turned a blind eye when some of these guys were funding some of these madrassas that radicalized these guys instead of us fighting with ourselves about what to call it it does seem a little silly. >> chuck todd from "meet the press." thank you. homeland security secretary jeh johnson will join chuck this week to ta budget battles and the terror within the administration.

airport. that record in the area has stood since 1886. amazing to see now that we're moving towards a storm that will not only bring us snow but will change to rain nap's how much warm air is coming in too. ? and a very quick period of time we're going to see the warm air rush in and a lot of moisture with the system too, that we'll doo have to deal with. >> and roads will be a big issue. let's look at tomorrow morning, 7 in the suburbs to about 12 in the city. another very cold start, not record breaking and the winds should not be too bad but we could see windchills close to zero cold and dry to start but not too bad to get out and do morning errands. get those down by around the 10:00, 11:00, 12:00 hour. winter weather advisories around i-95 corridor less snow but still snow and ice around i-95. here's what to expect tomorrow. snow between noon and about 5:00. it will start mixing with ice after that 5:00 hour. could be sleet, could be freezing rain depending on how the warm air moves in. but it will be changing to all rain as we move the through the

overnight hours. either way, it is going to have a major impact on your roadways on your plans tomorrow. veronica is here with how it will affect those roads. >> all about the plans for tomorrow morning. if you've got something to do somewhere to go get out and about, do it before 10:00 a.m. tomorrow morning. 12 degrees the temperature. talking about dry conditions prior to 10:00 a.m. after that that snow comes in fast and i think it could fall at a pretty good rate. so it's snow, then sleet and freezing rain all making for conditions on area roads pretty icy and slick with that temperature arnold 33 degrees. but as the warm air comes into this system it will allow us to change over the all rain for your afternoon hours, 4:00 5:00 6:00. these are the roads that could be impacted 495, 70 270, 81 66 and even out 68. could be impacted with a bit of ice accumulating and of course snow too. it could be a mess. it's fall ong the weekend so if you don't have to get out, maybe tomorrow is a good day to stay

system. >> we have leg warmers on under our pants and good gloves and winter jackets so we're set to go. >> now in this extreme weather that is the right thing to do especially if you're going to be taking metro. the transit system says, you know unxnlted problems can pop up at any time anywhere. now, tonight and over the weekend, you should know that service on the all of the lines on metro will be impacted by ongoing work that will be taking place. so you could be waiting up to 20 minutes. and that is without the bad weather issues factored in. we are live at l'enphant plaza, molette green. back to you. >> that's not a pretty picture. thanks, mollett. one more thing to watch out for on metro this weekend. the bethesda station will be closed saturday and sunday as crews continue work to replace the escalators there. it's a big job. bethesda has the longest escalators in the entire western

an agency known for secrets tonight reveals one of its oldest here on news4. barbara harrison has a special black history month report. at the outbreak of world war ii in europe the u.s. had only a fledgling signal corps as it was called charged with developing secure codes for u.s. military communications. this organization which would years later evolve into the

national security agency had a mission during the war to intercept and solve enemy code and decipher their secret messages. well while their work was classified there was a secret inside the agency itself that, with mer permission from the nsa, we share with you tonight. in 1944 the war was on in europe and the pacific. and washington's field was buzzing with young recruits eager to sign up for duty. one of them was james pride. he enlisted with a promise he'd go into training with the small segregated troop of army pilots the tuskegee airmen. but he got shuttled in a different direction. >> i was very unhappy that i didn't get to fly, to be a pilot. and i still don't know why because i passed the test. >> reporter: every test he took he passed with flying colors. eventually becoming one of the most requested radio crewmen at chinook field in illinois. >> i worked as a line radio operator as the only

african-american on the flight line. >> reporter: even so with racism in full bloom, he wasn't allowed to even ride from his segregated baraks to the flight line with the rest of the crew. if james pride was disappointed he never actually learned to fly a plane before leaving the service he was more disappointed when he returned home to washington. >> they sent me by train from the field to ft. lee for discharge. >> reporter: he soon learned that even after serving his country, earning two sets of silver wings, he wouldn't find a decent job thas hiring quote, negroes. eventually through friends in his old neighborhood he would learn about a military project that had been started two years before, a code-breaking division of the sis, the u.s. signals intelligence service. it was both civilian and military operating out of what had been arlington hall school for girls in nearby virginia. and while most of the work there was classified the biggest secret at arlington hall station

was that african-americans were working there too. historian david hatch. >> i spoke to several white officers who had served at arlington hall and three of them told me they had never seen an african-american at arlington hall. >> reporter: the history of the african-amere breakers wasn't easy to uncover. the order, apparently came directly from president roosevelt. william coffey was the waiter and houseman for the arlington hall school for girls. although he was college educated it was the only job he could find in his native virginia in 1941. >> the girls' school was taken over by the government by the army for its crypt logic headquarters. he applied to keep his job. he became a civil servant janitor. so he approached william coffey for introductions to any friends who might want a job here. >> reporter: their earliest mission, deciphering messages encrypted in coded commercial correspondence where enemy messages could have gone undetected.

when the war ended in 1945, the need for army kripcryptologists didn end. >> i got a call then. >> reporter: james pride in 1946 would ride the bus from washington to arlington to see if they might have the kind of work he had been hoping for. but as the bus crossed the potomac, he was told to move the the back reminding him once again that as a colored man he was expected to remain out of sight. invisible. and his story does not end there. there's a lot more to come. we want to thank the national security agency for helping us to chase down this story and for helping us secure that wonderful historic video that we saw. >> thanks for sharing it. >> thank you, barbara. >> you'll want to see part two. >> and we continue the story of james pride with part three monday on news4 at 6:00. the first two stories are available on our website, nbcwashi

so doug. miserable, cold nasty, wet. >> we're tired of talking about it. >> where can we go with this? >> you can't eve gone to florida to get away from it. >> bad there too. >> go to alaska. it's a loot warmt warmer there. >> out running errands tomorrow morning. >> that's the thing. tomorrow is going to be a rough day, especially after around the noon hour. that's when the snow moves in when everything else starts coming down too. take a look outside right now, not bad, looking at clear skies and those clear skies with light winds will allow temperatures to fall again. 20 degrees right now falling to about 14 by 11:00 tonight. if you have plans on this frigid friday evening, it will be quite cold moving on through. dress warm. storm team 4 radar all clear, not worried about anything right now. but here's the radar tomorrow. this is future weather at 8:00 a.m. we have the cold air in place so everything that moves in will first move the as snow. and then what's really amazing here is how warm the air gets

aloft during the day tomorrow. that quickly changes to snow. over through to some ice and eventually over to rain. here we are at 5:00 and you notice the snow to the north, rain to the south and the ice in the middle. how much ice is there? how much snow is there first? how much rain comes in? that dreaded rain/snow line across our region will be the tough one to forecast moving through the next couple days here. then it's just all rain by tomorrow night. winter weather advisory across the i-95 corridor winter storm warning back to the west. that's where we're more confident of more snow. 6 inches plus in some arias, 3 to 6 to the west of the d.c. metro area. south of there, 1 to 3, fredericksburg maybe waldorf and d.c. maybe a coating at most to about 2 inches in some locations. but this map i think will change even between now and 11:00. a lot of data continuing to come out. we'll continue to keep you updated tonight. 33 for a high tomorrow 44 on your sunday. p rain ends early. most of the day sunday is okay. then it's just cold again, high of 28 as we make our way towards

jason is where we would like to be tonight, down at verizon. what's going on partner? >> still plenty of time to get here, a late tipoff tonight, not too late 8:00. you can deprive the studioo the verizon center and you'll be on time. this one a big-time game always

special when lebron james makes his way to the nation's capital. wizards and cavaliers. these two teams have played twice this season each with a blowout in their back pocket. this one is a big-time matchup. and this meeting, it has playoff implications written all over it. james and the cavs making their second trim to verizon center. the cavaliers, they visited back in november when the wizards came away with a big-time win. but now the stakes a little higher this time around. john wall's wizards just a half game ahead of the resurgent cavaliers in the eastern conference. the playoffs started today, the wizards would host the cavs in the first round. both teams well aware of tonight's importance. >> we have an opportunity to go up 2-1. we know how well they're playing. right there in the standings with us. it will be a key game and a must-win for us. >> rounding third base going through the final stretch of the regular season.

that should be enough motivation. understand how important every game is every step is. >> we want to have the best record as possible and obviously we would like to have the first seed but we will see how we'll play the next 28 games. >> reporter: tipoff tonight, wizards/cavaliers at 8:00. you can watch the game on comcast sportsnet. let's move on to the nfl now. the combine taking place, many college athletes trying to make an impression for head coaches and gms all across the league. and former maryland terp stefan diggs is no different. he spoke to diana russini earlier today. >> hey, jason. a negative 20-degree windchill in indianapolis but inside lucas l stadium, things are heating up. the workouts have begun. tomorrow the receivers get their shot and maryland's wide receiver stefan diggs hopes to stand out. being filmed will be a key
