should have raised a red flag. >> if he'sed a jute kated as a mental defective he is barred from having a firearm. >> reporter: houser's wife had filed for divorce and he lost his home to foreclosure. his brother said that may have been the tipping point. >> he was getting dark on us, quiet and drawn. >> and the mayor said he had a troubled past. >> a time bomb. >> reporter: still, authorities are no closer to the motive as lafayette remembers its victims and rallies around its wounded. including two teachers who were shot and wounded and pulling the fire alarm. >> it took a for them to do what they did. they will always be a hero to me. >> gabe gutierrez reporting there. well, today's dulles international is offering free rides to the airport in honor of metro's silver line.

6:12. a traffic alert to tell you about in montgomery county. right now, crews are reconfiguring lanes at georgia avenue and randolph road in wheaton. traffic will be down to one lane on both roads during the construction. crews should finish it by monday morning's rush. check out the video from the amusement park in kentucky. take a look at this. a ride, it actually tipped over. had a bunch of people on it. it looks like one of those spinning swing kind of rides. it hurt seven people including some children when it fell. this is in bowling green, kentucky. sheriff's deputy said most of those hurt didn't need ambulances but did go to the

e.r. the sheriff's office is working to find out what caused the ride to fall. investigators are trying to figure out what caused this hotel fire on the las vegas strip. fire broke out yesterday near the rooftop pool at the cosmopolitan hotel. the pool's cabana and artificial plants helped fuel the fire. there crews rushed one person to the hospital. firefighters put out the fire and the hotel reopened a short time later. well, it's a nice start to the morning on this sunday morning but i think it will -- i think it will heat up a little bit. we have to get the fans with the little spray things. >> those things are awesome. you know what? i think chuck is going to agree with us. it will get toasty again. >> are we spray tanning? is that what's going on? can. >> come on. come on. >> i don't know. i'm just asking. >> you just got from vacation, you don't need that. >> it will be hot and humid. shower chance, yes, but not until much later on in the day. so if you have stuff to do, as

long as it's planned out before 5:00, no problems for you. outside this morning there's the sun coming up on the eastern sky. it's half a sunrise. we're missing the bottom of the sun there because of the little cloud in our eastern horizon. sun's up now. it does promise to be a very warm day to be outside. 70 already in leesburg and gaithersburg. 66 in manassas. 68 fredericksburg. the cool spot on the map,64 in luray and in martinsburg. just a little ground clutter around town, that's it. that's not togoing to bother you. there's a weak cold front off to the front. it's not that much cooler on the other side of the front. but it's just enough of a trigger in the atmosphere where as it comes in mid to late afternoon today, rain chances will sneak back up. planning out the day, hour by hour mid 70s by 8:00. hovering near 90 degrees for much of the afternoon.

clouds building after 3:00 or 4:00 this afternoon and then the best chance for rain in the metro is around 7:00 or 9:00. you can tell the clouds building up. here we are at 2:00 this afternoon. there's the beginning of the rain chance. northern frederick county into the panhandle of west virginia and along i-81. potentially as early as 2:00 or 3:00. by 4:00 the rain chances move into northern half of loudoun county. by 5:30, 6:00 showers encroaching on the metro. there is the ripple of shower chances coming on through. again, timing out your rain chances, first out of the shenandoah valley. most likely timed for rain here in town between 7:00 and 9:00. we are not done completely with rain chances. only at 30%, but it moves up to the 50% chance for showers tomorrow. on your monday. rain almost any point in the day tomorrow. then we get sunny and hot. temperatures into the low and

mid 9 0s as we head to wednesday and thursday. showers around in the morning, plenty of clouds at lunch time and then more showers monday afternoon into the evening. 91 today. 89 tomorrow. there's the coolest day of the week. 92 tuesday. mid 90s with heat indexes near 100 by wednesday and thursday. >> thank you chuck. we're looking at 6:16. next up, "reporter's notebook," a look at stories affecting our community. >> we're back in 15 minutes with more of the morning's top stories. >> good morning, joe madison here for "reporter's notebook." guys, let's get right too it. their talking about moving -- they're talking about moving the county seat or part of the county seat in prince george's county, and not everyone's thrilled about it. so since you're from prince george's county, let's go first with you. >> well, rushern baker, county

executive, is talking about moving the county seat to largo, instead of upper marlboro. this isn't a new conversation. this has talked about before, even before baker. upper marlboro is a small town. largo is right off the beltway, right off 202. right off again the beltway. so in terms of commuting being near metro it's a smart move. you have this open space over where the mall used to be. they bought property they have mccormick place, an area where the county has buildings where they can house administration. and they already have offices in largo already. so this isn't something that would be that new. i think the issue is that the council was feeling like, well, maybe we don't know enough about this. so i think that's the push back that it's not been transparent enough. but thing is a hard sell. you have a county seat in upper marlboro that's been there for 300 years. changing something that's been status quo for 300 years is not going to be an easy deal. >> but dave, let me bring up something you might be familiar with and that's the fact that

isn't the fbi also looking at that area? >> yeah, they're looking at prince george's county. and you might be able to sell the idea that the county executive building which is a beautiful building, which is wonderful wonderful -- it looks like the kennedy center. beautiful building, that's it. it's a lovely place -- i used to cover prince george's county, spent a lot of time in the building but it only has the county executive and the county council and their staff and a lot of other agencies as bremante said are out in largo. so this is a complete move. i think part of the problem is that these -- rushern baker is being accused of being secretive, closed door meetings. some people who were opposed to it were not kept apprised of it. state senator majority leader in the senate of maryland, mike

miller, he is opposed to it. >> why would he be opposed to it? >> well, he's got a soft spot in his heart for it. he thinks the legislative body is there. why have all the disruptions of moving in? >> does he have business interests too? i mean, let's get to the bottom line. isn't it possible business interests even though he may not admit that publicly? >> possibly. but i would think that the larger thing here is that, you know, they only have about 800 residents in upper marlboro right, but you have a lot of traffic coming through there because it's the county seat. so you have businesses that would lose a lot of foot traffic there. so they wouldn't like that. but also let's remember, this new regional hospital that the county is talking about putting in largo it's a big deal too. so if you have the regional hospital there and you move more county offices in largo that would be a perfect match-up for baker and those in support of the move. >> but there are also some other people are kind of saying, why is everyone surprised? you're watching all this building, you're watching offices being moved, so this whole thing about it being secretive you know, they're

saying, look, you know -- why are people surprised? you're seeing movement. >> well, i think though probably what you have especially politicians in the county is that they want to be in on the conversation. >> okay. >> they don't want to be in on the tail end of the conversation. i think that's the complaint you're seeing. >> another maryland story is the staff employees, planning a series of protests. i don't think anyone's surprised about that. this is probably going to be unions organizing their members. >> well they have already been out and they're protesting these proposed cuts. state cuts at least probably up to 63. i know in some agencies by governor hogan. there's really no surprise here. i think the argument would be if you make state cuts -- i think it's a normal argument and services are going to be hurt. i don't know if it's enough of a sell to save those cuts, maybe

they compromise and get them reduced. i'd be very surprised if those cuts don't stay in place. >> do you think we could see the kind of protest in annapolis that we saw, let's say, for example, against scott walker in wisconsin? i mean the u.n. people taking over the state capitol building. you had people coming from all over the country i even in the -- even in the dead of winter in madison wisconsin. i know i was there with our show. it was cold, but there were literally tens of thousands of people. could we see that in annapolis? >> you know, there are parallels. here's a conservative republican governor taking over in a blue state. maryland is probably -- well, maryland is at least as blue as wisconsin is i think we'd agree on that. yet at the same time the personality of larry hogan is different than that of scott walker. i'm not making -- taking my sides here, but his critics say he's too harsh, a little too tough. he is really trying to ram it to government workers and unions especially. larry hogan does not really have

that reputation. he's a solid conservative republican. he wants to make cuts. but he's willing to compromise. he's willing to talk to people. if the cuts get, you know, become very large, larger than they are now, or if the pain that the people who are being cut really start describing as being pretty tough this -- i mean, this could escalate. then he might have a real confrontation. right now i'm not so sure. >> wouldn't it depend on what unions? i mean, if it's teachers or policeman or fireman or whatever. >> right now i think it's asmy doing the protests. the protests happened in salisbury, eastern shore of -- a lot of votes there. hagerstown. landover hills here in prince george's county. i think the union is trying to make a point to say, listen, we have support. they are not large scale. i don't think they're garnering a whole lot of attention right now to dave's point. i think they'd have to pick up,

probably have to show up in annapolis for this to take on some speed. >> you know one of the issues that connects all of these regions and i'll get to d.c. in a moment, but that -- dave, i want to talk about the metro. it is still constantly in the news and now we had a congressional hearing. you cover washington, capitol hill. >> sure. >> what happened? it was -- was this a congressman john -- >> the chairman of the subcommittee. >> was he talking about privatizing metro? >> well i don't think we're there yet. i don't know -- and people tell me it's not going to happen, but he has -- he has led crusades before to privatize parts of government. he wants to change amtrak's ratio of public to private financing. he would like to have all of the food vending privatized. he's moved in that direction. so that's not surprising. but i think the main thrust of the hearing was metro has got to shape up or ship out. >> let's stop right there for a

moment. because right on that part. when we continue $15 an hour minimum wage, washington, d.c. what does that mean? to working class people in the district of columbia and we'll do that when we return to "reporter's notebook."

welcome back to "reporter's notebook." just before the break $15 an hour. i mentioned that that may very well end up on the ballot in the district of columbia. so the first question is why does it have to be on the ballot? second question is do you think it will pass? >> well, i definitely think it will pass. if they get the signatures. they need about 23,000 sipgt churs to get on -- signatures to get on the ballot as a

referendum in the district. 70% of the voters are apparently for for this minimum wage being increased to $15. that's not a surprise. who wouldn't want more money, whether or not you're making minimum wage or you're making over minimum wage. i think the issue now is this. how will businesses handle this? i think they did a poll, about 50% of the businesses in the district say listen especially in restaurants, if this $15 an hour deal goes through, we're going to have to cut people. because we can't afford to pay the $15 an hour. the national minimum wage is $7.25. in maryland it's about -- a little over $10. if you're a waiter and you're making under $3 an hour and you're making $15 an hour, you're making $22,000 a year if you're at the $7.25 to $31,000 a year, that's a tremendous jump. so you've got the one side, the average worker this is great.

you've got business saying, small business saying we can't afford this. >> but it's very expensive to live in the district of columbia. most say people can't even afford a one bedroom apartment in the district of columbia on the minimum wage that's currently set. >> i think that's a valid counterargument. i think that's the argument now. that the cost of living is already high and that the wage disparity is probably the highest in the district than any other place in the nation. >> so here's the question for you, dave. does this have to be approved even if it gets on the ballot and the citizens of the district of columbia vote for it. does it have to be approved by congress? >> ultimately, yeah. >> you're kidding me. >> the bill will go down for the hill and set for a period of -- what they call legislative days. those aren't regular days. and then if congress raise -- if anybody in congress raises a question they'll have a debate. they'll take it to committee.

take it to the floor. and if that's enough sentiment on the hill to block this, it could be blocked. but the republicans have a lot of other things to be thinking about these days. they're into so many different things with the budget, with the president, with the iran nuclear deal. they haven't been focused on the district as much as before, except when abortion rights and gun rights come up. this is a little different. although most republicans do oppose a larger minimum wage. >> this is a national issue. i mean, scott walker who is running for president basically said it's a lame deal, you shouldn't have minimum wage. i don't know if you can have nothing. >> south carolina does not have a minimum wage. >> bernie sanders has introduced a national minimum wage of $15. martin o'malley is saying he supports that even though he only supported a $10 increase in the state of maryland. >> here's what could happen. they could make a proposal to block the minimum wage, stick it on a spending bill, a must pass spending bill. supporters say if i vote against

this, the whole bill goes down. maybe i'll swallow hard and go for it. >> all right. >> not out of the realm of possibility. i'm not saying it will happen. >> another story real quick and i want to get to virginia in reference to them re-evaluating how they handle mental illness. the trump sign, it says trump 2016. there's actually a commission now that has to look at that sign to see if it is a campaign sign. so the question is, should it or should it not change? should it say trump hotel instead of just trump 2016? >> well, if i'm donald trump, my argument is that that sign was up way before i announced for president. i planned to open this hotel in 2016 2016, i still do, i want the sign to do. it's probably a win-win for him. if they vote to take it down he'll get more publicity, he'll make an issue of that. and it may be down, but trump will still have a platform to say, this is what's wrong with

government. this is why it's petty this is why it's small. we have to think bigger than that. >> as i understand it, from my sources, under current law there is some thought that if the sign is okay. it doesn't violate campaign laws, but there's a big rumbling -- a lot of buzz on this. there may be movement on it. clearly trump 2016 has -- you know, could easily be taken as trump running in 2016. >> okay. one minute left and that is fairfax county. the police sheriff re-evaluating how they're handling mental illness. what's your take on that? >> well, i think this is a road they have to go down. the young lady who died while being in the fairfax county county jail was tased, she had schizophrenia. they're not housing folks who are not mentality ill of homeless, they have separate

facilities, they're saving money. i think it's a smart thing for the county -- >> do you think it's fair for fairfax county to do? >> that's what i'm getting, yeah. they don't have the training and there are some other jurisdictions that do have this kind of training. for a county as sophisticated and populous with so many challenges it is time to move. >> okay, guys thank you. appreciate it. and appreciate everyone watching "reporter's notebook," and have a great day. "news4 today" starts now. >> hi everyone. welcome back. good morning. welcome to "news4 today." i'm angie goff. >> i'm adam tuss. another break out the barbecue kind of day. outside it feels pleasant for now. chuck bell said we'll hit the 90s again though and there's a chance we can see some rain. chuck bell will join us now with the forecast. what have you got for us? >> rain chance today is at 30%.

but it's not the usual 30%. this is stacked up later on into the day and into the evening hours as well. here's a live picture from our tower first thing this morning. sun inching its way up. a good looking way to get the second half of your weekend started. mild temperatures in the 60s and 70s. humidity making a comeback. showers are likely today but primarily as we get much later into the afternoon and into the evening and another heat wave ahead. seven day forecast will be a sizzler. this weather front up to our north. it will generate that little rain chance coming in. could rain as early as 2:00 or 3:00 out in the shenandoah valley. but in and around town, our rain chances come in after 5:00 or 6:00 this morning. 72 college park and bowie. 74 in edge water, maryland this morning. your morning planner temperatures will rise quickly. 85 degrees by 11:00 a.m.

getting hot for sure. clouds increase after 3:00 or 4:00. high today, 91 degrees. showers possible as early as 5:00 or 6:00. temperatures will be drifting back down into the 80s. it will be hot to be outside. >> thank you, chuck. we are following a developing story in baltimore county. police are on the scene of a boating accident in the waters near interstate 695 at ft. carroll under the key bridge. it happened just after 3:00 this morning. still working right now to find out if anyone was hurt. anne arundel firefighters are on the scene. new details about a prostitution bust in the district. d.c. police say they arrested six more men for solicitation, bringing the total to 63 arrests in 11 days. now, the new arrests took place friday night into early saturday morning. police say they picked up at the men around the trinidad neighborhood in northeast d.c. take a look at this surveillance video right here. police need your help catching this suspected thief in the

involving more than 11 million cars and trucks. one recall involved jeeps. the "wall street journal" first reported the fine. a family in charles county is working to keep drunk drivers off the road. their daughter died in a suspected drunk driving crash last year and this shows us what the family is doing so deaths never happen again. >> reporter: a dui check point held in the heart of la plata in honor of the 20-year-old after being allegedly hit by a driver who was drinking. >> i have no problems with people who want to drink or party. however, they get behind the wheel and drive it's not the right thing to do. >> reporter: tommy jenkins is autumn jenkins' dad. he hopes the check point will educate drivers and send a message. >> maybe we'll be able to get them off the streets before they injure or kill someone tonight. >> reporter: the family is here with this picture of autumn.

you're watching "news4 today." >> well, it's been another busy week on the political front. the race for the white house in 2016 starting to get real interesting. and president obama is talking about gun control.

>> joining us now to talk about it all, moderator of "meet the press," chuck todd. we'll talk about donald trump because obviously he's been stealing the headlines. >> donald trump? >> you know that guy? >> is he running for president? >> i think he might be serious this time. >> we didn't cover him much. >> yeah, not too much, but there's somebody who is making some headway in the headlines and that's democratic contender bernie sanders. i remember a month ago we saw that he was gaining ground, reporting on these polls saying he was closing that gap or at least getting closer to hillary clinton and it appears that that that -- that's actually -- he is -- >> it's real. yeah. it's a durable -- it's a durable coalition he's putting together, but the question is can he build upon it? he clearly has a solid 30 to 40% -- >> is this the middle class we're talking about? >> i think it is. the message on the middle class squeeze. what's interesting about sanders, sanders and trump are both making economic messages, both targeting this sort of -- this idea that middle class americans are feeling the squeeze.

now, trump does it in different ways. trump's handing them somebody to blame for their problems. i be -- be it immigrants and sanders is saying no it's the corporations and making the calls for you. so they may use different rhetoric but they're actually kind of trying to push the same idea. they may have different solutions as well. sanders is finding some traction. his now next hurdle is whether he can expand his coalition behind sort of progressive whites. he has been in louisiana this week trying to talk to african-americans and prove that he can be a candidate for african-americans today. >> and hillary clinton has to testify about the benghazi attacks. how does that play into everything? >> it's a cloud hanging over here. we saw how it can up end her campaign for a day or two. there was the report, was it going to a criminal probe that was coming from the justice department, okay, it's not a criminal probe. justice may look into how the --

her e-mail server and how her e-mails and classified information was handled. it's sort of this constaptss thing -- constant thing that hangs over her head. you know she is still keeping one eye on one more candidate that could get into this race and this he's joe biden. the more this sort of nags never know when biden may be thinking, maybe she doesn't have a lock on this thing. so this is why all of it does matter right now. >> just real quick, her coming out and saying she's going to testify in the benghazi hearings. >> there's a circus to you. >> yeah. going to be her advantage? >> well, it's already hit her already. when you see -- we have new polling that confirms what we saw all week. she's got some problems. people view her unfavorably. but one thing that's always bailed her out is when republicans overreach in their attempts to attack her and they're counting on -- going to capitol hill actually will end

up helping her. she'll look tough against house republicans that want to beat her up. >> we have a lot to get to. we have that lafayette shooting as well. a lot of different things we want to talk with chuck about so he'll come back in the 10:00 hour. >> yes, ma'am. >> you can see "meet the press" right after "news4 today." all right. let's look at today's top stories. prince george's county police say two men were shot overnight. it happened on hubbard road in hyattsville. one man in critical condition and the other is expected to be okay. police haven't said what may have led to the shooting. searchers are expected to look for man drowned in the chesapeake bay. doug brown went under while swimming friday night. the sheriff's deputies found the body of his brother yesterday. and right now, president obama is meeting with kenyan youth and community leaders. later this morning he'll travel to ethiopia. president obama is first sitting president to visit the country.

right now a wildfire is forcing people to evacuate. it's threatening as many as 200 houses northeast of sacramento. they say that the state's extreme drought is making matters worse there. so this is the last guy you want showing up at your weekend cookout. a group of people barbecuing in milwaukee spotted not one, but two lions. police rushed to the scene. couldn't find the animals but you can see from the video officers patrolling the neighborhood. they had their rifles at the ready. there had been several lion sightings this week in and around milwaukee. but they have not been able to catch one the big cat. i know the big question is, there's no zoo reporting they're missing lions. no one knows where they're coming from. >> where did they come from? all they want is a burger and chips and they would have gone away. that's it. >> i think they have a bigger appetite than that. >> go hear kitty, and wave the meat around the yard. >> that's right.

it will be warm and humid. it is july in washington. we almost can't deny that. >> typical. >> pretty much. but the rain chances today are not going to completely ruin the second half of your weekend. it will be very hit and miss. primarily later on into the afternoon and evening hours. if you have stuff to do outside the earler with you can get it down the better. if you're doing a cookout in the backyard, wrap it up as early as possible. when you say free beer they show up. if they're still there in three days you should have served something else. outside, there's the early morning sunrise. good looking way to get to the day started. clouds will gradually increase later on this afternoon. already a mild 75 now in washington. dew points are starting to creep back up a bit. and that means more and more humidity coming our way. so what to expect for today, hot, more humid than yesterday. dry for much of the late morning and into the afternoon hours. but rain showers really becoming a little bit more likely after

about 5:00 or 6:00. your hour by hour temperatures then 79 by 9:00 a.m. into the 80s by 10:00 or 10:30 this morning. 88 degrees by 12:00 or 1:00. it will be warm and turning into a hot afternoon. a perfect day to go on out to the pool. best pool time is by 3:00. shower and thunderstorm chances pick up after 4:00 or 5:00. not much going on here through the morning. here's 2:30 this afternoon. here's the bubbling up of shower chances. right along skyline drive. with time, they may migrate their way closer and closer to the metro area. this is 5:00 this afternoon. showers up towards damascus and leesburg may have a shower as early as 5:00 or 6:00. showers fading away, we're losing daytime heating by 7:30, 8:00. that's the reason the rain chances may drop off a bit. there's just enough push to keep

shower chances off and on through the overnight. satellite picture, a fairly clear sky early on. rain chances today if you're traveling up towards new york city or boston, you'll run into the rain drops out there. if you're flying westbound like des moines and st. louis, showers and storms will interrupt some flights going in that direction as well. what about tomorrow? cloudy skies, sunshine from time to time. but it will the coolest day of the week. 74 in the morning with the risk of a shower early on. and here's future weather starting as early as 3:00 a.m. tomorrow morning these are the last of the overnight showers fading away. dry for much of the morning but plenty of clouds around. then after lunch time, with the heating of the day, showers and thunderstorms chances back in the day. no severe weather expected. just know that you may need the

umbrella. there's your seven day forecast. enjoy the cool 89 tomorrow. we'll be at mid 90s with heat indexes near 100 wednesday and thursday. >> thank you, chuck. well, coming up the new website going after the king of online shopping. how it promises to change the wa

you're watching "news4 today." >> welcome back. if you love the simpsons you can get your hands on the beer from the show. but you have to travel a little bit. homer simpson's favorite duff beer, yum, now on sale in chile. 20th century fox made a deal to sell the beer there. it went on sale this weekend and it will be available in supermarket next month. well, in "news4 your health," a walk in the park helps calm your brain and improve your overall mental health. researchers at sanford university found people who live in the city what have higher

risk for anxiety and depression. they found people who walk in the park for 90 minutes found it improved their mood and they were not thinking of the negative aspects of their lives. however, people who walk near a highway didn't show much improvement. blood flow was still high and they were still -- they still had anxiety. i guess walking by a highway would do that to me too. >> don't be near the beltway. >> stay in the park. but that kind of makes sense. living in a city, you know, there's traffic. there's parking. there's all these types of things that would contribute to that. >> i agree. well, with more people shopping online than ever before the race to be the internet's top retailer is getting more competitive. >> yes, this week, amazon's market value soared higher than walmart, but a new player has a lot of you talking. nbc's hallie jackson took a closer look at jet.com. >> reporter: as jet.com takes off, it hopes to change how you buy things online.

modeled after a shopping club like costco, and taking aim at retail giant amazon. >> we are innovating around price in a way that we don't think anybody has to date. our value proposition is simple. spend $50 a year to join as a jet member, you save hundreds of dollars a year. relative to the lowest prices online. >> reporter: you can save more by using a debit card instead of a credit card by waiving your right to return and putting more products in your cart at each purchase. >> if you buy peanut butter, it will be sold at a discount. >> reporter: mary plans to pay the $50 membership fee. >> as you add more things to the cart, you see how much you're saving. to me it's huge. >> reporter: while the cost of membership is less than amazon prime jet doesn't offer perks like streaming video and same-day delivery. >> they're making the bet that enough people care about getting the lowest prices. if you care more about same-day

shipping or two-day delivery go to amazon. but if you're okay with three to five day shipping but you want the best price, come to us. >> reporter: on social media, a mixed reaction. some calming it confusing -- calling it confusing and slamming the selection. but with more of us shopping online than ever before, having new companies step on to the scene can benefit all of us. >> whether or not jet works long term, in the short term this is a great thing for shoppers because they have the competition which does drive down prices. >> it all starts with a simple search. >> reporter: in the battle for your cash -- >> everybody wins. >> reporter: the winner, the customer. hallie jackson, nbc news, los angeles. >> what do you think? >> i think it's great. the more competition the better for us consumers. this guy knows what he's doing. he started diapers.com and that was one of the first websites everybody told me about when i

got pregnant and he was known for the great packaging. getting it to you within a day or two. great deals buying in bulk. >> ultimately the more competition out there, the better for everybody though. >> yeah. i mean, everybody has to up their game now. right? >> i guess so. well, we have much more ahead for you on "news4 today" on this sunday. >> that includes an hour by hour look at your forecast. it will get hot today. stay with us.
