crash when another car rammed into that fire truck and bounced off several other cars and flipped over. >> the driver of the car that flip side in serious condition and three other people have been hurt. this is on the inner loop between connecticut and georgia and here we go. here is a live look at the traffic situation and all lanes were closed for a time and now they're back opal though firefighters just tweeted there is another crash further up the loop on rockville pike and because that crash blocked those lanes for so long the delays on the bellway still extend to the dulles toll road in virginia. jim? doreen? thanks, chris. two rail cars full of riders separated during the morning rush. it happened as a six-car train like this one was pulling into the navy yard station. it was just one of the problems on the rail side today, but as our transportation reporter adam tuss found out what happened here is really unusual.

>> reporter: how could it happen? how could a metro train literally come arc part as it was pulling into a station. >> you will see the orange cup levellers that hold them together. they came apart as the metro was in a tunnel. the train immediately came to a stop. >> holy cow! losing the confidence of the average commuter. >> reporter: the rail cars were separated by a foot and a half when all was said and done. they were eventually put back together and passengers got on another train and no one was hurt. the whole thing cost a lot of time during the morning commute. some were reporting they were stuck for 40 minutes and she said something is not adding up with metro. >> so much happening and it's like every so often now, some story and it's the 6-1 line and then the next week something with the next line. >> rashid abdullah also had to

re-route along the delays that built up. >> they have to do a far better job. not just a little better, far better. >> reporter: metro said it won't talk about an ongoing investigation, but it did apologize to riders on social media. all of the rail cars on the train involved here were 3,000 series rail cars which were pretty reliable. they are not a common issue on metro. at the navy yard station, adam tuss, news 4. >> it was a rough morning on the red line, too. a signal problem that the silver station caused delays throughout the rush and trains were turning back at brooklyn and just at 8:33 three separate trains were offloaded and another at gallery place for the same issue and the third at judiciary square because of a door problem. a low-level judge in montgomery county has been charged with trying to have sex with a teenager and now police are looking for more possible victims. police say a few months ago an

undercover officer posed as a 17-year-old boy and made contact with daniel read on a social network. the officer later told read he was only 15, but read continued to send messages about having sex with the boy and even arranged to meet him in germantown. that's when police moved in. read is now out of jail. he's on bond. the family called 911 and firefighters showed up within minute, but they never went inside the house. and the victim later died of a heart attack. it is the latest emergency response failure in the district. mark segraves set out to get some answers and he joins us live with the reaction. mark? >> reporter: chief dean says this is an unfortunate case of human error and while firefighters involved may face discipline, the fire chief says he's more concerned with fixing the system so that something like this never happens again. >> we are devastated. they're devastated.

it will impact them for the rest of their lives. >> reporter: sunday afternoon gloria jackson called 911. her husband, 67-year-old albert jackson was suffering a heart attack. >> he was a nice man and loved his grandkids and loved his family. he was a nice man. >> reporter: firefighters were outside the jacksons' home in minute, but they never went to the door. when they arrived, police were across the street helping someone who firefighters thought was the victim who they were called for. >> ran across the police who said, hey, we don't need your services aren't required. they made the assumption that that was the right location. they had the other units put back in service and they returned to quarters. >> mrs. jackson called 911 again. by the time help did arrival most 20 minute his passed. jackson was taken to the hospital where he died. dean is changing department procedures because of this. as for the firefighters. >> their supervisor will review that and make a recommendation if he thinks discipline is warrantsed also, but again, for

me, if we have holes in our system we're supposed to not only look at hey, i punished the person, but do we need to take time to see if our processes are right? >> reporter: prior to this incident, when firefighters or paramedics arrived on the scene they simply said to the dispatcher we're on scene. from now on they will actually give the address of where they're located to make sure that the dispatcher can confirm they're at the right location. doreen, back to you. >> mark segraves, thank you. tonight two people are recovering after an ambulance crashed into a pole near inova fairfax hospital and they were at gallows road and arlington boulevard. another car was involved in the accident and police are investigating exactly how this happened. tonight the colleagues of a woman who was killed by a ride-on bus in bethesda is telling news 4 that the accident to them just doesn't add up. 67-year-old devika gunasekere

was a wife, mother and grandmother. her co-worker says she was a very careful woman and always on time for her job. she was hit by a bus yesterday while she was in a crosswalk. friends say she used that crosswalk off old georgetown road at battery lane hundreds of times. it was only a block away from where she worked. >> so careful. devika was a careful person. i mean, just you know, in terms of all of us trying to grasp what happened none of us can imagine that this was any of her fault at all. >> police are looking to determine if the signal times were working properly. so far no charges have been filed. a very cold day across our region, and not quite as cold as yesterday. we didn't have the wind and with some sunshine, at least it was better, but at least we hit 40 degrees today. take a look at where we were early this morning and we

started off as the coldest morning so far and 9 at dulles and 9 manassas and 10 in gaithersburg this morning and it will not get nearly that cold tonight and it will still be on the cold side and you will still need the coat and temperatures in the 20s in some looks in the city and i think we dropped to 36 next hour and down to 32 degrees at the 10:00 hour. we are going to continue to see those numbers fall and once again, they will fall fairly quickly and another cold night tonight and milder by the weekend and we've got rain on the way and we'll talk about the rain and how it could impact the redskins game and, yes, i mentioned snow last hour and talk about that, too, in the seven-day forecast. stay tuned. thank you, doug. the white house is casting doubt on north korea's claim that it successfully detonated its hydrogen bomb. a seismic shock is detected in the same area where north korea has carried out nuclear tests and a hydrogen bomb may have produced a powerful blast. steve handelsman has this from

capitol hill and he is live with the latest. >> here on capitol hill today and down at the white house nobody was saying they believe this really was an h-bomb, but the possibility is so horfying it's reopening the issue of what to do about this nuclear threat. >> reporter: as north korea claimed it set off a hydrogen bomb it released footage of north koreans cheering the announcement. >> it's for self-defense said this man. something big exploded at the north korean test site, but the earthquake waves did not indicate an h-bomb. the initial analysis is not consistent with the north korean claims of a successful hydrogen bomb test. >> reporter: a fusion h-bomb like this one in government footage tested in 1952 is far, far more powerful and dangerous than the ordinary atomic bombs north korea has already detonated, but experts say dictator kim jong-un ordering today's test signal that he is developing an h-bomb.

>> even if this were not a hydrogen device, that it clearly their intention. >> reporter: republican candidates blame democratic presidents bill clinton and braim. >> when you allow a m megalomaniacal man to develop them. >> we need a commander in chief with the experience and judgment to deal with it on day one. >> the u.n. security council today unanimously agreed to toughen sanctions, but nothing has worked so far to keep the isolated outlaw nation and its young dictator from building the world's worst weapons. all eyes tonight are on china hoping north korea's only real ally and financier can find some kind of a way to get young kim jong-un off his path to a hydrogen bomb. i'm steve handelsman, news 4. >> the north korea test added to

worries on wall street where investors were concerned about china's economy and low oil prices. as you can see from the closing numbers, the dow, the nasdaqed and s&p 500 all ended today with losses. >> tomorrow, the lawyers for a baltimore police officer william porter will appeal a judge's order. that order forces port tore testify against a fellow officer in the death of freddie gray. the second officer will go on trial soon. he's the man who drove the van in which gray suffered a fatal injury after he was arrested back in april. our chris gordon reports on unusual developments in this case. >> reporter: of the six baltimore police officers facing trial for the death of freddie gray, only officer cesar goodson is charged with murder. >> i think it is the van driver fault because he should have checked. >> he's responsible for second-degree murder or something less like man slauter? >> manslaughter.

>> not murder? >> no. >> reporter: cesar goodson is being charged with second-degree depraved heart murder and manslaughter. goodson is the driver of the police van in which freddie gray suffered a broken neck and died in april. officer porter has been subpoenaeda a prosecution witness to testify that he told the van driver that freddie gray needed medical attention and couldn't breathe. at a hearing today porter was put on the witness stand and he refused to answer questions from prosecutors citing his fifth amendment right against self-incrimination. prosecutors asked the judge to compel him to testify at good sorn's trial. this is the first time this has happened in maryland. >> almost sacrilegious to make a defendant testify by giving him or her immunity and that is why it's never occurred. >> porter's lawyers say he would immediately appeal the order to testify against a fellow police

officer. if porter is forced to take the witness stand, he might still refuse to testify. >> if any of us are given immunity against our testimony, we must testify or face contempt. >> reporter: by ordering officer port tore testify with a grant of immunity, judge barry williams warned prosecutors that nothing he says can be used against him which means they may have no case when he is scheduled for a trial in june. >> that's the latest live in baltimore. doreen, back to you. >> chris gordon, thank you. a car goes out of control crashing into a building and what we are learning about the guy behind the wheel as the store owner looks to rebuild. he was arrested more an they year ago sxharjed with terrorizing the couple that lived there. his lawyers argue that his actions were the result of involuntary intoxication. i'll take a look in a live report. >> an admission by vice

president biden.

a maryland business owner is vowing to rebuild after a suspected drunk driver crashed into a shopping center and set it on fire. the shop on southern maryland boulevard in o winowings was ded and the owner says he's devastated. >> it's unbelievable that one person can do something like this and cause so much damage.

there's nothing left. i tried to go in earlier, and i can't see one thing salvageable. not anything. even everything that was outside the store is gone. there's independent counsel. >> police say vincent troy crashed into the building just after midnight. he's charged with driving under the influence. a spike in d.c.'s street robberies has police scrambling to respond to it all. as tom sherwood reports, part of the strategy includes filling critical vacancies in the city's 911 department. >> reporter: whether a medical americans or reporting the crime, the city's 911 call center is dispatching, focusing on street robberies there were complaints. it is short staffed and in some cases poorly managed. >> we heard someone called 911 and they said they're in the middle of shift change and we can't send an officer. that's an unacceptable answer.

>> the bower administration says it's trying to fix serious 911 delays with dozens of vacancies and little new training. >> last year, we had more calls than any year on record. as the mayor said we have not brought on a class in eight years. >> reporter: the mayor's press conference focused on a spike in robberies and how police and prosecutor are working closer together to target repeat offenders. >> last year it was the run-by snatch of a cell phone type of robbery, but what we're seeing now is a small group that will commit robbery after robbery after robbery. >> reporter: tom sherwood, news 4. >> a shelter in place at two schools in maryland. police are investigating a deadly shooting in the area. the shooting happened this afternoon about a mile from the benjamin stoddard middle school and the eva turner elementary schools on brookshead place in waldorf. deputies say it may have been the result of an argument

between two men. one of those men were shot and killed and the deputies say they do have a lead on who the shooter is, but they've not found him yet. >> the attack on a u.s. mission in benghazi, libya, killed the u.s. ambassador and three other americans. it happened back on september 11, 2012. more than three years later now the house committee investigating that attack expects, it says, to finish its report within the next few months. today, lawmakers met behind closed doors for four hours with the former cia director david petraeus. the committee chairman trey gowdy says the committee has more questions for petraeus and he has agreed to return. tonight results from a news 4 i-team investigation, thousand says of u.s. army families have received money they were promised, but weren't paid by the federal government. checks have been mailed after months of waiting. as scott macfarlane reports

they've intervened after watching a report. >> carmen is paying for her 2-year-old's day care nearly broke her because the feds were months late reimbursing her the money they promised. she says six months later she's finally been made whole. >> it's gotten much, much better. >> they were late in sending out day care subsidies and weren't returning phone calls, either. we investigated and found thousands of other families suffering the same problem. the general services administration which runs the army day care fee assistance program had a backlog of 9,000 late payments and 10,000 unreturned calls and emails. congress ordered the feds to make fixes and administrators said they're bringing in a private contractor to take over the management of the program including carmen's payments. >> i'm glad they're in capable hands. >> they deserve to be doing that that with the peace of mind with

what's happening with their family at home. >> the army parents will be in good hands and the general services administration and army say in the past two month happens they've eliminated that backlog of late payments and calls mailing out checks to every army family who had been waiting and parents whose paperwork and applications still need fixes are still waiting for their checks and that new contractor, not all families will be shifted over immediately and others elsewhere in the country will likely have to wait months. numbers of congress say they're happy carmen dykes spoke up. >> if it wasn't for nbc and mr. macfarlane doing a report and raising the issue a lot of us would not have realized the significance of this problem. >> reporter: there are 10,000 army families nationwide that must be transferred to this new contractor, it will take until october to do so. at the capitol hello, scott macfarlane, news 4 i-team. you can see all of the

i-team's coverage that led up to the changes for army families on the nbc washington app. just click investigations. more trouble for chipotle. we'll see yet recent norovirus outbreak is now the focus of a criminal investigation. several popular restaurants in d.c. say they're no longer accepting cash. the owner of the chain says it has everything to do with crime. >> we were taken aback by that, and they didn't really go into much detail. >> reporter: coming up at 6:00,

i've got work to do. i didn't feel like working at 7:00 in the morning. cold out there last night! >> frost on the windshield and now you're talking about snow? >> it's in the seven-day forecast, but we're only talking about a very little bit, but it is kind of a pattern changer here as we're making our way through the next couple of days. this morning, very cold. you had the frost out there. i saw a lot of people not quite ready for that, either. my wife included. anyway, let's go and show you what's going on out there right now. temperatures around the region, 38 degrees and winds out of the south at 3 miles an hour and the wind not a factor and temperatures with clear skies and light winds will fall faster than they would with windy conditions and they're already in the 20s and 27 in culpeper and 28 in manassas and leesburg changed now down to 32 degrees and 32 in baltimore and a very chilly night and once again it is going to be a cold one and

not quite as cold as it has been and we're still quite cold and we're still quite dry and we're not going to see any for the next couple of days and i do think there will be a better chance on friday and there is one storm system right here making its way our way and that could bring us more clouds and shower activity on friday and look what's happening out toward california and they're getting just hammered today and each a tornado reported south of los angeles and san diego. more tornado warnings just posted and take this guy getting out on the paddleboard and tons and tons of pictures on social media from all of the flooding that they are reporting. this was in a marriott parking lot, as well. the rain continues, and this is all part of el nino and they are just getting started with the rain. for us, we're not going see the rain here until friday into the weekend and then we get part of that system on sunday. more on that in a second. 22 in gaithersburg tonight. 21 manassas and 21 in

fredericksburg, but cold, but not quite as cold and high temperatures tomorrow and 42 in d.c. more cloud cover and slight chance of a shower and closer to the bay, but most of us remain dry. tomorrow, next couple of days and a better chance of a shower friday night into saturday and let's take a closer look at that. high temperature on friday of 45 degrees and it's not the big umbrellas and we're talking about the small umbrellas and put it in the back pocket and light rains and shower activity overnight tonight and if you do have dinner plans you may get on the wet side there and 53, not a bad day on saturday with cloud cover. sunday is the day that i'm watching for sure. a high temperature of 57 and falling temperatures during the day. take a look at the forecast for sunday here as we move on through. the redskins taking on the packers and starting off the day on a pretty mild note getting to 54 degrees and breezy and wild, turning cooler by 4:00 ask by the time the game ends, 42 with

a windchill of 32 and the wind will be a big factor toward the latter half of the game and that's something that we'll continue to watch. the cold air it returns and it returns in a big way and we mentioned that "s" word, too. see you at 6:45. >> thank you, doug. a couple in mclane tied up and tortured for hours and now the man charged in the crime is preparing an unusual defense. a local restaurant chain no longer accepting cash. we'll tell you why they're doing that and why the d.c. police chief says it's a sign of a bigger problem. that powerball jackpot is up to $500 million now, but you know, that's not enough to sway some diehard redskins fans.

right now a violent attack on a virginia couple inside their home. tonight the unusual defense the suspect plans to use in court. >> it's pretty fact-specific and unusual. a popular d.c. restaurant chain is giving up on cash because of their concerns about crime. >> plus find out why chipotle is now at the center of a criminal investigation. powerball and the playoffs. big numbers, big odds, big choices, big story coming up. first at 6:30, new developments tonight in a high-profile case in fairfax county. >> it's been more than a year now since a mclane lawyer and

his wife were attacked in their home. now one of the suspects remembering chacharged in the case plans to use an unusual defense. julie carey explains what involuntary intoxication means. >> when i saw these words, involuntary intoxication in this court document it really caught my eye. that's because in all of the trials i've covered i've never seen this criminal defense used, but now a man charged in a high-profile case andy schmule plans to put this defense to the test. andrew schmuhl and his wife attacked a couple in 2014. it came after alicia was fired by the male victim's law firm. andrew schmuhl tased and shot at the couple while alicia communicated with him outside the home and they fled when the victims pulled an alarm. they found andrew schmuhl dressed only in a diaper.

they plan to use the extremely rare involuntary intoxication defense arguing that his mental state at the time of the defense resulted from the use of medication. prominent criminal defense lawyer not involved with the case says it is a challenging defense. >> it is something that you couldn't reasonably anticipate. >> reporter: court documents reveal he suffered from mental health and medical issues and they don't detail what drugs me might have been taken or given. >> if he took the wrong medication or if tvs misprescribed or he for some reason, didn't know what he was taking and then it's certainly a fair argument. >> reporter: prosecutors are likely to argue the very well-planned attack could not have been carried out by someone drugged into intoxication and it's delayed the trial's start. this list shows some things being examined. bottles of nyquil and benadryl

found in a backpack and an empty plastic bottle containing an, monoia and gas mixture. >> reporter: the trial was supposed to start on january 19th will likely be reset for early spring or some time in the summer. >> back to you, vance, in the studio. >> some new video just in shows masked gunmen in a d.c. convenience store in a robbery. the suspects jumped over the counter and pointed guns at the clerk. nobody was injured and that holdup happened at a store on brentwood road northeast on saturday morning. a developing story in california. chipotle has been served with a federal grand jury subpoena related to a norovirus incident. it was related to a restaurant in simi valley last august. 100 people got sick after eating at the restaurant. the chain has dealt with salmonella, e. coli and norovirus outbreaks across the country since last summer.

a popular restaurant chain in the district is no longer accepting cash. the owner of jettie's sandwich shops and searchside restaurants says crime is making him change the payment policy. our meagan fitzgerald has our report. for many folks, jettie's and surfside isn't just about good food. it's also about convenience, but as of the last month, the eight locations in d.c. will no longer accept cash. >> i really apologize about the inconvenience. we only take credit or debit. >> bo blair owns the restaurant. he says the reason for the change is simple. no cash means less to worry about. >> we just decided it was time to take the cash out of all the stores and that solves our problems with our employees getting robbed. >> over the last year, blair says thieves have stolen hundreds of dollars in cash from the stores. >> at a press conference today about robberies in the area,

metropolitan police chief cathy lanier admitted blair's new policy change is concerning. >> we don't want people to change anything about their routine whether it's a business or individual. i mean, our job is to make sure people feel safe. >> reporter: but in the meantime, the changes at the shop are permanent. the customers can either pay by card or download the restaurant's app. >> that's understandable. the less cash you have and the less chance you have of being robbed. >> reporter: northwest, meagan fitzgerald, news 4. breaking news at the live desk. it took dozens of tries, but for the first time congress is sending a bill to the president's desk to repeal obamacare. the house voted along party lines to approve this measure which also defunds planned parenthood. the senate passed the same measure in december. right now republicans have not unveiled an alternative to the law, but house speaker paul ryan says he will present one by the end of the year. president obama is going to veto this bill, but the gop says it

will try to work to override that veto. vance? >> thanks, chris. there is reaction tonight to the ted cruz birther controve y controversy. cruz was born in canada to an american morguther. donald trump raised questions about cruz's citizenship could present a problem if cruz becomes the republican presidential nominee. during a campaign stop in iowa today cruz told reporters his eligibility to serve as president is in his words, settled law. he noted that former presidential candidate john mccain was born in panama. vice president joe biden weighed in on the tone of the republican presidential race today. >> i've spoken to three of the presidential nominee -- potential nominees on the republican side and they said joe, it's crazy. this is s s sa absolutely crazy.

>> any regrets for notty thering throwing your hat in the ring? >> sure. >> he remains deeply involved on the democratic side and it came from a reporter from our nbc partner station in connecticut. new records to improve attendance in a local district. we'll 28 ytell you why students show up fin school and get credit. her father says it crossed the line, but the tsa is not apologizing. you'll need the coats across the area tomorrow morning and as we head out across the region. temperatures tomorrow starting off in the 20s and maybe even the upper teens. by afternoon tomorrow, back to around 40 and more cloud cover. the rest of the vehicle are forecast including a big storm coming up next.

>> a father was angry because his daughter got a security patdown and he called it invasive and unnecessary. this happened in raleigh/durham. his daughter was screened after tsa agents found a juicebox in her carry-on bag and a swab of her bag came back with a false-positive reading. the patdown went on for about two minutes. >> the patdown seemed to be the go-to option for them and i think they could have done a better scrutiny of what they were looking for prior to putting their hands all over my 10-year-old daughter. >> the tsa tells nbc news the patdown was within the approved procedures for children a cell phone alarm in the girl's bag was going off requiring additional screening. >> arlington is marking a milestone in affordable housing tonight. officials there topped out the

new springs apartments which are going up near the boston metro. that's a construction tradition and the roof is sealed. the apartments will have 104 units and will include community runs of business center underground parking and a playground. hundreds of people have already applied for the units which will be available this fall. there is more, as well and during the break we invite you to open up the nbc washington app to see what someone in charge of that project says is in the works. a council member wants to relax d.c.'s truancy rules at schools. right now a student is marked absent if that child misses more than 20% of the school day. david grasso wants to undo that rule. he told the washington post that it forces too many students into truancy. those students get referred to child and family services or even court.

grosso says schools will be able to peoplize students for being late. britain's prince george is 2 years old and he passed a big milestone. take a look at the future king on his first day of nursery school. his mother kate took these two pictures. prince george did not shed a tear as he parted ways with his parents outside the school according to vanity fair. the royal couple decided not to send the prince to preschool in london, instead they chose a montessori school near their country house. >> okay. powerball fever sweeping the nation. jackpot now $500 million. if you had a choice between the skins winning the super bowl or you winning the powerball jackpot, what would you choose? super bowl? powerball? don't answer just yet

did you get your ticket yet? the powerball ticket? >> i did. i'm going to tell you why, because tonight's jackpot is $500 million. put that another way, that's half a billion dollars. that is the sixth largest ever in north america and the biggest one since that one last february. remember that one? $564 million. now, a lot of people don't even bother with this stuff unless, you know, it's a big jackpot and there is a good reason for that, because the odds are stacked against you. experts say you are more than 300 times more likely to be hit by lightning than you are to win the lottery.

so what? >> for $500 million, it's nice to dream, to imagine and fantasize and do all of the things. >> even if it only lasts a couple of hours. >> right! for some die hard fans half a billion dollars isn't nearly enough money to sway them from what they really want, a red skins win in the super bowl and one of these fancy championship rings and the team can take its first big step toward that goal with the win this weekend and pat collins is live with more on that. hi, pat. >> hi, doreen. there is just so much to did. powerball drawing tonight and playoff game on sunday. what if you had a choice? skins win the super bowl or you win the powerball jackpot. just ask him.

>> $500 million and i am going to get it. >> when the jackpot gets this high it's time to get serious. >> 500 million. >> reporter: when the jackpot gets this high, people dream about what they're going to do with all that money. >> if i win that money i would give it all to my children. >> i was give most of it away. >> buy the washington nationals. or make a very generous offer to mark lerner. >> one of us is wearing the wrong outfit. >> with washington in the playoffs and the powerball jackpot drawing tonight, this modest proposal. if you could choose between the skins winning the super bowl or you winning theowerball jackpot, what would crowe do? >> are you kidding? powerball. >> reporter: you'd take the money?

>> of course! >> reporter: what about the super bowl? since you're a big fan. >> i am a big fan. i'm going to make a big party one day with the super bowl. >> i would rather see the redskins win the super bowl. >> powerball. >> i think the odds are better. >> reporter: boy, you are some fan. >> i'm a native. >> reporter: what would you choose? >> powerball. >> you're a die hard redskin fan. you're a lifelong washingtonian. >> what is snyder going to give me? >> our franchise hasn't had a super bowl win in a long time. let's go with the super bowl. >> reporter: over the powerball? >> let's hear it for her? >> reporter: odds. did anyone mention odds? >> odds of the skins winning the super bowl, 38 to 1. odds of you winning the powerball jackpot 292 million to

1. so how do the skins look now, jim? doreen? >> you have to like the odds for the redskin, but i would still go for the half a billion. i want a closer examination and a more in-depth report, pat. all of those people who say they'd rather the skins win the super bowl than take a half a billion super bowl. you know why? they lie! they just lie. i can't imagine anybody preferring a team to win than having that -- you get that much cash, you might sit with snyder about buying a team and put your own people in there. and you have a bunch of money and a super bowl, as well. you get your tickets yet, pat? >> absolutely. they're in my back pocket. i'm not walking away from this? this is my retirement plan. they let me buy a powerball

ticket. if i hit it i'll get to retire. >> listen. we wanted to know your thoughts. super bowl or powerball. right now it's about 87 to 13 in favor of people taking the cash. >> which team are you on, doug? >> if you put the winning 500 winning in front of me here -- >> duh! >> at least you've got a chance. i'd buy a ski resort locally and i would buy a ski resort and we'd all have snow. i told you it's in the seven-day forecast and let's get right to it. first off, we have to start with the next four days and we have 42 degrees and we'll deal with partly cloudy skies and it will be on the cold side so bundle up again tomorrow and 45 degrees on friday and i mentioned the chance for showers if you're headed out to dinner you might need some of that meaning the

umbrella and saturday, 53 degrees and all of us at one point in time, doreen and i, we'll be there on saturday and the health and fitness expo and come down and join us and i'll be doing q & a from the bweathe perspective. we're talking about rain chances during the day on sunday but they're early in the day. i don't think the redskins game had any problems as far as redskins are concerned and windchills by the end of the game will be in the 30s. it will be much colder at the end of the game. temperatures also dropped much colder by the middle of next week. yes, a slight chance of snow next wednesday and nothing too big and it looks like a clipper system, but at least a chance is now in the se

it is january, and we're still playing ball. jason is here and all of the rest of us anxious to hear from you, carol, about that towel back in the day. we used to always get whatever george got. are you going to give us a towel? >> i'll bring back some towels. this one right here. if you come to the game on sunday, you're not going to like this, you have to get there

early to get one. they short ordered them by the thousands. they want you in your seat by 4:15 and get yourself a towel. as for the team and what you see on the field they're hoping you really like that so today they went back to work. one of the few problems the redskins have is a good one. too many quality running backs. jay gruden says the healthiest will go. either matt jones or chris thompson will just have to watch. speaking of healthy, corey lichtlich licht lichtenschneider practicing today. >> and they put their pads on and it's been a minute since i've had contact so -- >> how did it feel? it felt really good. >> what sounds really good is what was coming from the locker room. a team-wide commitment to keep this season going. >> it's not a win for us just being in the playoffs. for us it's winning the game.

you either win or lose and no more victories than football and this locker room, we're preparing with a home football game and a home playoff game come sunday. >> i look forward to getting in front of the crowd. we've got a tough fan base and they're high maintenance which is good and i'm glad we made it to the playoffs and right now we're just, you know, we're making them proud to be redskins fans. >> one time! and since they want to keep making those redskins fans proud, they've adopted that view, not mine. >> nobody out here thinking they'll win either way. they have that big chip still on their shoulders. >> you're not surprised. >> i'm not surprised, but i do think fans agree with me. >> thank you, carol. >> jason? >> we'll switch gears now from the redskins and talk about the wizards for a moment and big game for the wizards and they welcome the cleveland cavaliers

and the verizon center and they come in a little upset at the wizards and lebron is looking for revenge against john wall and company and they handed the cavaliers and their only home loss of the regular season, a 12-point win for the wizards and the caps 10-4 since that game and the wizards are 8 and 9 since that contest and either way, lebron hasn't forgotten what happened in cleveland a month ago. >> they beat us pretty good on the home floor and i believe that's the only home loss this year. >> we have to come back with the mindset that we lost. >> we know what we're going up against and we know what we have to do and we have the chance to compete against anyone and have a chance to win the game. >> and the redskins packers game knowing you're a big cowboys guy. >> going with rodgers. >> ooh! he likes the weirdest things and

the cowboys, the yankees and the cowboys. >> they're not going to like that at the verizon center tonight. >> nicholas backstrom for making the [mother] yeah but this neighborhood,i feel like
