new york city has not solved the problem of overpriced hot dogs. you may recall the story of a hot dog vendor with a cart at ground zero who charged up to 30 bucks per dog. well, he was fired but the guy who replaced him is charging up to $5 a hot dog. that's twice the price that is supposed to be posted on the cart, according to new york city law, but the vendor said it was too windy to post the prices. the owner of the cart says he had no idea his employee was overcharging. >> there's a new way for police to catch drivers who slow down for speed cameras in school zones and then take off. prince george's county police are using something called the dragon cam, a hand held cross between a radar gun and photo camera. the department plans to use it in 146 school zones around the county to catch speeders. they will begin with a 0-day pilot program with warnings for violators and then they will move on to $40 citations. >> and that dragon cam makes a

shenandoah valley and towards virginia, will continue to move south and east. showers are continuing to die as they move on down to the south and east. you can actually see them. back towards the west there was thunderstorm activity earlier and they are drifting right on down to the south. it's with a little boundary that will move through overnight and that continues to give us rather warm air and we could see fog early tomorrow morning so know that. here's saturday at 8:00 a.m. notice some clouds and fog during the early morning hours. that should burn off and then we'll see some sun in the afternoon. the more sunny with get the better chance we have for a couple of isolated showers, maybe a rumble of thunder but notice the coverage here very scattered, if that. i think just isolated. could be a little bit more towards the bay and southern maryland tomorrow afternoon. i think this is a little bit overdone but if we are going to get some it will be closer in towards portions of southern maryland. i think the nats game tomorrow going off at 1:00 should be no problem. i believe that's a 1:30 game. saturday evening looking great. problem tomorrow night, no problem whatsoever.

80 degrees and 79 back towards leesburg and 89 in culpeper. best chance of storms down to the south and east of d.c. if you're headed to the pools, looking pretty good. more sun late and starting early we'll see the cloud cover and notice the temperature. once we get the sunshine around 10:00 11:00, 12:00 that's when the temperature starts warming up. heading down towards the beach tomorrow, could be an isolated shower there too. mostly to the inland areas and then the real cool day on sunday, easterly wind and high of 67. some areas even cooler than that so monday a little bit better day. able to take monday off, monday down at the beach looks pretty good. 78 on sunday and 87 inland on the monday and we will see a chance for some scattered showers, maybe a thunderstorm. any storms on monday and tuesday could be on the stronger side. that's something we'll watch for but i don't anticipate anything too severe as we make our way towards wednesday thursday and friday, everybody has been saying let's turn the heat up. mother nature says okay, let's

go ahead and do it. thursday and friday, high temperatures back to around 90 degrees. looks like we'll stay there, too, for a while. >> sunday looking pretty good. check out this unusual discovery in the dinosaur park in laurel. a visitor saw this large dinosaur tooth that measured 2.6 centimeters. slightly bigger than a penny as you can see. this tooth came from a raptor. their teeth are the most common meat-eating dinosaur fossils found in maryland. yikes. >> coming up in sports tonight, much more ahead. the nationals offense finally

and power is still there. that's a three-run blast. his seventh home run of the season and the nats are up three. also playing great defense and watch michael taylor the young man, makes a nice play off the wall and rocket throw and espinosa, a beautiful tag. tanner rourke loving it. espinosa twisted his arm there but he was fine. man on and the buffalo hits one to right center and rendon trying to score from first. the cubs with the relay and he beats the tag. nats are up 6-4. the top of the eighth, more defense. already two home runs on the night, going for a third. this one in center field. dennard span spanning and making a great catch right there. the nats snap their three-game losing streak and win this by a final score of 7-5.

>> striking out chris bryant. >> orioles visiting the indians. matt wieters making his season debut. underwent tommy john surgery last june. did not waste time making an impact. fourth inning, this one off the wall. chris davis coming home. he would score. welcome back, matt wieters. the orioles they go up 1-0. in the sixth we're tied at two. adam jones tweeting pictures of himself eating doughnuts and on national doe month day he proves the delightful tweets are helpful. solo home run and also a trip. orioles are up 3-2 and go on to win this one 5-2. let's drop down to the college game, super regional between maryland and virginia. bases loaded for lamont wade, captain clutch for the terps this postseason and comes through once again. here, adam hazely can't make a play on that ball. two runs score. that's a double for wade and the terps are up a pair of runs.

eighth inning cavs pack in it down a run back in it. kevin doherty takes this to deep center and wade back on it, and he can't come up with it. stays in the park though. the bases-clearing double for doherty and virginia, they take the lead and they would take game one of this little three-game series. maryland, they would fall 5-3. also tonight, mystics winners in their season opener beating connecticut 73-68. also maryland/virginia they will play again tomorrow, game two of that series. >> a lot going on. >> is that at 1:05? >> 3:00. >> hey, if you have a dog you probably know that they can be very protective of their home turf. well check out this guy in florida. this pit bull mix chased off a black bear three times the dog's size and the neighbor shot this video and they were ready to record because apparently the dog has done this several times before. my
