well you may be one of millions getting an e-mail monday morning saying they've been hacked. it affects 4 million current and former federal workers. and we've learned this breach it goes back 30 years to 1985 and affects nearly every government agency. officials say some names, social security numbers, job assignments, and training information could all be compromised. >> hopefully they'll get it more secure. >> there's something to be said for the old paper system where they actually had to break into the building in order to get information. >> security experts believe that china is the culprit despite the country's denial. >> we're hoping to get an update on the condition of a woman who was hit by a flying bat. this at a baseball game. >> this is a broken bat grounder. bat goes flying into the seats.

the ball goes to second. >> this happened in boston at the red sox/athletics game last night. take a look. you can see the bat breaks it flies into the stands. it hit the woman in the head. other fans in shock there. she was bleeding heavily screaming for help. paramedics rushed her out of the ballpark. they have not said how serious her injuries are, but no question. >> but it doesn't sound gooddoesn't. you fear of course balls coming at you. but then you think a bat it could be scary. >> absolutely. if you're going to the cubs/nationals game today, good weather for that. keep an eye out. could be a little rain chance, but i think they're going to be able to get the game into completion. any rain chances we have today, they're not big thunderstorms to worry about. they'll just be quick 15 or 30-minute long passing showers. then they'll be out of the way and you'll be off to a dry start after that. on the whole i think you're going to like the way the weekend is shaping up for all your outdoor activities. i wish it could be 100% dry

forecast on your saturday and sunday. we will take what we can get after the cool, cloudy, rainy stretch of weather we've had around here. we haven't seen much of anything in the way of sunshine the last couple days. at least a few breaks of sunshine now outside the studios in northwest. have sunshine on the grass first thing this morning. and temperatures are in the 60s in most neighborhoods. we're 67 in washington right now with a west wind at 3 miles per hour. mild start, up near 80 degrees today. it does come with a risk of showers. rain chances areawide stand at 50%. rain chances are actually higher the farther east you go today towards the chesapeake bay. a little tense fog in the shenandoah valley where temperatures inare in the 60s. we'll spend most of the day in the upper 70s flirting with 80 degrees. our average high now is 82. rain chances again today, everyone has a chance but rain chances are highest from i-95 to points eastbound today. just sort of file that away.

here's a high resolution computer models. bubbling up of rain just about everywhere has a chance first thing. but as we go through the course of the day, rain chances may linger longer east of i-95. through about 5:00, 6:00, 7:00 this evening. on the whole, no washouts coming. there are some sprinkles to be dealt with. this is howard county and baltimore county. just a few lonesome sprinkles. that's it. and again, we're not looking for any heavy rain today. just enough to get you wet and mad for 30 or 40 minutes before you can resume your outdoor activities. on the whole, i think you'll like how the weekend is shaping up. rain likely at the coastline for today. so not necessarily the best beach day today. water temperatures still in the low 60s. not a lot of people in the water. with an onshore breeze tomorrow. beach temperatures are stay in

the 60s. tomorrow off to a partly to mostly cloudy start. i couldn't rule out one or two tomorrow afternoon, but it will be a dry day. temperatures tomorrow upper 70s. that will be nice. a dry start monday morning. by 5:00 in the morning. but by monday afternoon, here's lunchtime on monday. there's future weather bringing out the rain chances once again. that could come with some thunderstorm chances as we head towards monday afternoon late on into the day tuesday morning. but then after that i think tuesday afternoon onward, we get warm and dry and very summery around here once again. humidity levels start to inch their way back up as do the temperatures. so enjoy the little ac break we've got going on for the next couple of days. it's june in washington, we'll be 90 before you know it. we've got events going on today. we're not going to rain on your parade. you can celebrate fairfax today. the family friendly festival kicking off at 10:00 a.m. this

thank goodness for that. >> i know. little quicker. it is a big day for horse racing fans today as final preparations are underway for the 147th belmont stakes. >> american pharoah going to attempt to become the first thoroughbred to win the triple crown since 1978. affirmed was the last to sweep all three races. jay gray has the latest from belmont park. an exciting day out there. >> reporter: it is. great to talk to you this morning. we've had some rain to start the day here. it's supposed to clear up be perfect weather by post time. an exciting race as well. look. american pharoah, very strong in the first two legs of the triple crown. and most agree it is his turn here. his trainer says he's ready. his owner says that he is ready. and those inside the race game say this could be the horse and this could be the day that history is made. of course there are several horses in the field that want to challenge that. if you're looking for a dark horse, so to speak a spoiler in

this race you may want to consider frosted or materiality. both strong horses that took off the preakness, the middle race to rest up for today's run. so it'll be interesting to see how that plays out, if they get on the track here this afternoon and of course you can see it all here. back to you. >> jay gray reporting for us live this morning from the racetrack. and we all know american pharoah likes a messy track. >> that's right. thanks, jay. >> thanks. you can check all the action from belmont park right here on nbc 4. american pharoah is the 3-5 favorite. should be an exciting race. the time is now 7:26. >> and still ahead, what you can do with your unused prescription drugs in northern virginia. >> -- overdose. and soon it's going to be available to regular virginia citizens. but how up to speed are

pharmacies on the new law? a look at that just ahead. and severe weather strikes overnight in parts of the country. we're going to walk you through some of that damage. why should over two hundred years of citi history matter to you? well, because it tells us something powerful about progress: that whether times are good or bad, people and their ideas will continue to move the world forward. as long as they have someone to believe in them. citi financed the transatlantic cable that connected continents. and the panama canal, that made our world a smaller place. we backed the marshall plan that helped europe regain its strength. and pioneered the atm, for cash, anytime. for over two centuries we've supported dreams like these, and the people and companies behind them. so why should that matter to you? because, today, we are still helping progress makers turn their ideas into

reality. and the next great idea could be yours.

or 6:00. most likely hour to be rained on is about 5:00 p.m. at least around the metro. higher rain chances the further east you go today. going to do a little grilling out in the afternoon no washouts. may be just enough rain to get the bun a little soggy around your hot dog. be ready to bring that inside. or cover it up. >> we don't like soggy buns. >> no -- no, we don't. >> i don't want to know where your mind is going. >> back to you, back to you. >> all right. come on in. clean it up. speaking of that, the cleanup is underway today in nevada. this is after a tornado ripped through some homes and businesses near carson city yesterday afternoon. tornadoes are rare in nevada. this one was on the ground for about a minute. and parts of colorado are bracing themselves for more severe weather this weekend. take a look at this video here.

post-surgery. for years doctors have said not to eat or drink anything the night before an operation. as news4's doreen gentzler reports, fasting could be doing more harm than good. >> reporter: when robert frieze found out he would need to have part of his colon removed, he said it wasn't the surgery he was afraid of. >> the concerns were around the interruption to things going on. you know, the kids, all the activities. you know, i wasn't sure how long it was going to put me out. >> reporter: but what robert didn't realize at the time was that his doctor was using a new approach to help him recover more quickly. something called enhanced recovery after surgery. >> we're not doing this for cost savings, per se. we're doing this to make the patient feel better and get home and to recoverer quicker. >> reporter: enhanced recovery involves a series of steps

before during, and after surgery. it includes anesthesia drugs, making sure patients are up and walking around after surgery, and most importantly loading up on carbohydrates before surgery. dr. robert chudinski is with georgetown university hospital. >> well, we just, again, looked at all the problems why people were staying in hospital for a prolonged period of time. we looked at starvation and nutrition. and we found there's an impact by starving the body by inhibiting it from receiving things as simple as glucose or carbohydrates. >> reporter: the doctor now has his patients drink 20 ounces of a sports drink like gatorade about two hours before the surgery. that combined with the other measures is helping many patients to leave the hospital faster. for example, those who have abdominal surgery typically spent five to seven days in the hospital. with this new protocol, they're now leaving after two days. >> there's no reason to starve before surgery.

it might not be as appetizing in that you're not going to have a large meal, but you're going to be able to drink a carbohydrate drink that with satiate your appetite to make you feel better. >> reporter: the doctor says robert frieze left the hospital after about three days after the surgery. a few days later he was up and walking and even back to work. >> just like any other day. i'm just happy to get out of there quicker. >> and that was doreen gentzler reporting. right now doctors at georgetown are using enhanced recovery for colon and abdominal surgeries. but this could also benefit patients undergoing all types of operations. today you're going to hear the rumble of history on railroad tracks in manas is a. the family-friendly event is going to start at 10:00 a couple hours from now. you'll be able to see the inaugural trip of the 611 steam train rolling through the city. they'll take you from manassas to front royal and bring you

weather. this is our high resolution model. it brings up this popcorn area of showers. your most likely time for rain today is going to be noon to 2:00. rain may linger a little longer. by 2:00 this afternoon, rain chances into southern maryland. right along along the northern neck into fredricksburg. but rain chances drying up across northern maryland after about 2:00 or 3:00 this afternoon. by 4:00 today still a risk of showers basically right on i-95. and the shower chance continues into southern maryland this evening before things start to dry out once again. so everyone has the chance for rain today. but rain chance is highest east of i-95 out to the eastern shore. as far as rain chances right now, one lonely shower up here. this is going to be a little light rain here on the baltimore beltway on i-95 here in the next little bit. it's probably going to cross the

bridge. on the whole, we're off to a dry start this morning. and your seven-day forecast calls for a nice little warming trend. for everybody that enjoys their 90-degree sweat factor there's a little something for you in the seven-day forecast. not today or tomorrow. continue to get a little vacation for today and tomorrow, we'll be back intos monday afternoon and monday night. should get the rain out by tuesday and be mostly dry thereafter. >> nice. we deserve it. >> you're right. >> thanks. today you can learn more about a new plan for cycling routes and safer bike storage. this is montgomery county. the second annual great bike summit takes place at veterans plaza in silver spring. it's going to take place at 10:00 lasting to noon. they will unveil a new master plan creating new cycling routes and the best type of bike lanes for the county. also trying to figure out how to make the bike lane more secure. the number of bikers is on the rise. how the nationals park is
