104. 84 on friday, nice day friday, the weekend comes, 81 on saturday. 79 on sunday, now, right now the best chance of rain looks like late saturday, much cooler weather, a tricky forecast, something we will continue to watch for you the next couple of days. next week, starting off on a much cooler note. >> all right, thanks, doug. sports coming up, carol out at the park with more on some of the big questions facing kirk cousins. >> answer a lot of questions this weekend, jim. on the field, everyone wants to know what is going on in the meetings and locker rooms, kirk

a couple of important sporting contests coming up in our town. one of them's out on the gridiron. carol's out there now, where jay gruden had some things to say today and i guess we heard from kirk cousins, too huh, carol? >> yeah a busy day. 90 hours and counting till kickoff of week one. we are definitely counting every minute. and robert griffin iii's status is tbd. jay gruden announced that he has verbal results of his concussion test, but he is not going to make it official and make that announcement until he has the

written results. extra cautious there doesn't matter, meantime, all eyes on kirk cousins, kirk cousins, his team, jay gruden says. he is the starter, handing the keys over to him, as an nfl starter, a record of 2-7, throwing multiple picks in four of those games, whether he fixed his turnover issue, isn't even one of the biggest questions it is how he is going to handle having rg3 behind him on the bench. >> i don't feel a distraction in the building. you know, the distraction is if i turn on the tv, answer my phone, get on twitter, so the distraction is, you know, and as long as i am in the building, working hard, "ignoring the noise," even if there is something on the outside being said, i don't feel it. so you know, we are going to play in because washington for the washington redskins, the nfl. there's always going to be something going on that's going to be there and so important to just look forward and not look right or left. >> so cousins saying griffin staying low key while this new

season kicks off with the lowest of expectations. a number of represented national polls including espn and pro football talk have picked the skins it finish dead last in the league. the disrespect has been noticed in the locker room. >> i don't think it really truly affected the team because when we are out there on the field, we are not thinking about all the noise these going on. >> a lot of thing that you got to learn how to tune out that being one of them you guys think the sky's falling, we sit in this locker room with a lot of optimism for this 2015 season. >> i have seen the projection, i know where everybody has us rank and great motivation for our football team and we are looking forward to it. you know, being an underdog, nobody talking about us, everybody thinks we're what we are, i think our guys are fired up to show what we are all about. >> redskins just getting a little love this time of year. as for the nat, they were a team predicted to win the world series, but it doesn't even look

like they are going to make the playoffs, not after last night's disaster. matt williams could barely stand to watch it as the nats fell apart in the seventh. he was forced to pull blake trion after the he gave up a run. then, felipe revere row the hook after walking two batters. then three more batters would be walked, including the game-tying run, jonathan papelbon served up the go-ahead homer. the nats bullpen a huge mess in this series, 14.21 e.r.a. in 6 1/3rds innings. the team has sport of its manager but some fans have lost patience. listen to this. >> what do you do? you pick yourself up by the bootstraps and you go. you don't have a choice at this point. learned from the bad, appreciate the good, take nothing for granted. [ crowd booing ] >> wow. >> those boos coming from the

president's club, as fans were able to watch the press conference through the glass

tonight, fireball on the runway. an engine bursts into flames just before takeoff, leaving passengers just seconds to escape. tonight we hear from the captain whose actions saved lives as fire consumed part of that plane. moving targets. terror on the freeway as bullets pierce through cars. a possible tenth shooting just tod sparking fears of a serial sniper. world outrage. the camerawoman caught kicking and tripping families of migrants running for freedom. now she's paying a price. and two massacre survivors from the church in charleston, for the first time describing the moment shots rang out, the shooter's chilling words before he fled, and a grandmother's act of love that saved a little gi
