well, we have got clearing skies out there. we had a few clouds earlier this morning but we'll get some sunshine earlier this afternoon. we had a few rain showers overnight which also supplied a little bit of melting throughout the region. now, it is breezy out there. temperatures are going to stay right around that 40-degree mark, but by the time we get to
11:12 am
the afternoon, as the wind settles down, temperatures will fall as the clouds clear as well. in fact, we'll start to get some freezing just after about 6:00 or 7:00 tonight as that temperature dips below that freezing mark. and these are going to be our overnight lows tonight, anywhere from about 15 to 24 degrees out there. so everybody below freezing, everybody going to see that hard freeze tonight with anything that has melted on the roadways. a live look at the national mall this morning. that's a beautiful sight. the mall will be open today in less than an hour. the first trip up the washington monument is scheduled for noon, and forbes theater will also open at 11:30. the national park service says the amount of snow we would have to remove from the mall and other park service grounds could fill the monument 18 times. that's nearly 62,000 tons of snow. park service says if you were to pile up all that snow and measure it, you would need a pat collins snow stick that was
11:13 am
nearly two miles long. >> wow. i guess a lot of folks would like to get out to the national zoo to see if they can catch tian tian rolling around in the snow. as roads start to clear, problems are popping up. >> including potholes. we'll show you some of them
11:14 am
11:15 am
road crews across our area rked all night to keep their
11:16 am
promise of passable roads in all neighborhoods. and while the temperatures are swinging up and down and that's helping with the melting, it's not a good sign when it comes to another road issue, and that's potholes. news4 transportation reporter adam tuss is live. are the potholes opening up? >> reporter: as we go through this cleaning cycle, we're not just worried about the snow on the ground, we're worried about this, the actual road coming out of the ground. that's what's happening here on williams boulevard. >> it's so loud. it's like our whole house is shaking. >> reporter: christina thomas and her boys feeling it. >> it's a little -- yeah, there you go. you can hear it. >> reporter: christina's house is right next to these newly formed potholes at the bottom of the hill. as the temperatures go up and
11:17 am
down, the roads give a little bit, drivers noticing the new craters. >> i didn't like them. glad i have a jeep. >> reporter: then there are the other challenges right now, lanes disappearing. bike lanes? what bike lanes? and the sidewalks. good chance if you live in a neighborhood or in the city, you're dealing with this on the sidewalk. not a single snowflake shoveled off this sidewalk. we have a ways to go and it will require your patience. as we go through tonight, the other big issue is going to be that big refreeze. just getting to your car down your driveway, that could be a little slippery and slick. give yourself some extra time as we go through that. back to you guys. >> yeah, and adam is absolutely right. we are going to see that refreeze overnight as temperatures fall into the teens and 20s. we're in the 30s to low 40s right now and that's where we'll stay throughout the afternoon. though it does feel a little cooler because we have a northwest wind.
11:18 am
42 at port belvore. we have slushy spots, a lot of spots in d.c. down to one lane. this evening, i would say after about 6:00, that's when you want to get home because we'll have icy spots out there along with some fog. then overnight to tomorrow morning, definitely some icy spots as well. we stay in the low 40s for the next several days with a warm-upstarting on saturday. guys? >> all right, lauren. well, d.c.'s restrictions will not end tonight. do not park on the emergency roads or your car will be towed. over the last two days, d.c. hauled about 600 cars away. that's earned the district about a million dollars in fines. most of the cars went to private impound lots where you may be forced to dig your own car out. call 311 if your car was towed of the. >> i think anybody who sees something here will know that i
11:19 am
spent time and energy digging myself out. >> but you should know that you can get yourself in trouble tonight for blocking your shoveled parkway spots from other drivers. the end of the snow emergency means you can park on emergency routes but also regular parking rules go back into effect. drivers told us yesterday that they hope others will respect their hard work and not park in a spot that they worked so hard to clean for themselves. developing today, several of the ranchers who organized an anti-government standoff in oregon will be in court. ellen and ryan bundy and five others were arrested after a shootout last night. members pulled the group over. it's not clear who shot first, but one of the protestors died. consequences for the woman at that now defunct house.

we've gotten some reports that a gas station in chevy
11:22 am
chase is charging $5 a gallon for gas. that's nearly five times as much as maryland in chevy chase. there are no price gouging laws. maryland and d.c. have the laws that cover things like food, ice and water. d.c. law bans a more than 10% markup. the price cannot grossly exceed the price that it was charged 10 days before the storm. some residents right now are fighting to stay in their homes, and you may wonder why when you see this video. the residents live in these apartments. yep, the apartments teetering on the very edge of an eroding cliff in california. we first showed you this video yesterday now we are learning that five of the 20 residents are ignoring orders to evacuate. they say they'll still have enough time to get to safety if the cliff crumbles too close to their home. the city says they'll be out twice a day to inspect the land. >> i wonder if they've seen that video.
11:23 am
>> it's pretty scary, isn't it? >> it's pretty scary. i'm not too sure i could stay there. some of those people, of course, have lived there for many, many years. one man we heard on i guess "nightly" last night has been there for years and years. he didn't want to leave his home. >> no one wants to leave their home. pretty dangerous there. an neighborhood,i feel like it's got a lot of what we were kinda talking about. the kitchen is light and bright,new. we should definitely go see it.

[agent] hey brendan,you might like this room. [announcer]redfin pays its agents based on your happiness... that's real estate, redefined. good afternoon, everybody. i'm meteorologist lauren, and we continue to see melting throughout the region. the melting continues today because temperatures are above freezing. we're at about 34 degrees. that's where we'll stay until 3:00 and then the temperatures go down. sunset is 10 minutes past 5:00. i would say about 6:00, you're going to try to go where you need to go because those temperatures are going to the
11:25 am
teens and 20s tonight. tomorrow maybe in the 50s. not today, though. we're stuck at that 40-degree mark and we're seeing winds out there. northwest winds gusting up to about 20 miles an hour. that means it feels a lot cooler than it actually is. if you're driving around out there today, it's going to get sunny and breezy. we're start to go get sunshine out there throughout the region right now. but we have one slushy, snowy lane out there right now. then as we head into the overnight, we're really going to start to see everything freeze back up as i've been advertising plus tomorrow morning. be careful and keep that in mind when you're headed out later tonight. guys? >> thanks, lauryn. no reason to make alternate plans if you're planning on riding the train this afternoon. the trains are riding on schedule. we checked but they aren't reporting any serious issues yet. as usual, double check to make sure your specific train is on time. if you're headed out to take a flight, the snow probably will not affect your travel today. we just checked flight delays.
11:26 am
according to flightaware.com, seven flights have been delayed, three flights were canceled and 14 delayed today. bw marshall has had only one canceled flight and eight delays. a combative donald trump a combative donald trump drops out

11:29 am
right now with the storm truck in northwest washington traveling along foxhall road, making our way onto nebraska avenue. what we're noticing as we head out and about today, roads reduced by about 50%. so if it's a two-way street in the neighborhood, pretty much only one lane is open at this point. the highway, the shoulder in many locations, is closed. you can see right now a live look outside our front camera here. the turn lane on fox hill road still has a lot of snow in it, and as we make the turn, notice the slush there on the ground. that becomes ice tonight. you can also see a lot of wet ground here. we'll be concerned for black ice to be developing, as lauryn was saying, as early as 6:00 p.m. but especially tomorrow morning during that commute, we were driving and noticed tons of trucks just filled with snow seemingly taking it out of the city. i also noticed traffic heading into georgetown at all the major arteries right now at a major
11:30 am
stand still. so if you have plans to head into georgetown in the next hour or so, you do want to be aware of that. but again, as we travel out and about today, noticing wet roads and a lot of snow still on area roads. lauryn, the good news is as we head to the weekend, the higher roads are continuing to melt, so we'll melt all this snow. >> the temperatures will be right around 40 degrees or so, then we hit the weekend and those temperatures start to go up. mid-40s on saturday, low 50s on sunday and monday. so if you want to wait to shovel a little bit more, maybe just wait until this weekend and hopefully we'll get some melting. you can see those clouds clearing throughout the region and with the temperatures above freezing right now and some added sunshine, we should be able to get more melting throughout the day today. but as amelia said, she's driving around on those roadways, and as the temperatures drop, we'll start to see some refreezing. between 5:00 and 7:00, that's when that temperature starts to
11:31 am
dip. we'll be below freezing at 7:00, so definitely a refreeze. and i do want to mention that wind. that wind will die down as the clouds start to decrease throughout the afternoon. here's a look at your 7-day forecast. temperatures falling today. we'll be breezy on friday. the next few days right at 40 degrees. we're back in the 50s sunday, monday, tuesday. maybe a few sprinkles on monday as well. guys? well, the blizzard has effectively closed schools for most students in this region all week. just minutes ago we learned that prince william county schools will be closed again tomorrow and the rest of the week. loudoun county schools will also be closed all week. manassas city schools were off until today and there are teacher work days there for the rest of the week. in west virginia, berkeley county schools will be closed tomorrow. in d.c., students at public schools are back in classes right now. d.c. schools opened on time today. a news4 crew watched extra snowplows out there trying to

clear the way. we also watched some folks trudging through snowy sidewalks and the kids trying to get through snow-plowed streets to get to classes. administrators said they would excuse all late arrivals and all absences today. a missing prince georges county woman was found dead. aurora nelson went missing yesterday. they confirmed to prince georges bureau that nelson was found dead near her home. no word yet on a cause of death. in prince williams county, three more people have died following blizzard 2016. the deaths are being attributed to car accidents and shoveling. in all 48 people have died from that storm. a maryland woman who spent days inside her car is now recovering from hypothermia. the maryland national guard and other agencies helped pull a woman from her snow-covered car. firefighters said the woman only had blankets to keep her warm over three days. a 10-year-old boy is
11:33 am
recovering right now from a sledding accident. fairfax county medics found the boy at the bottom of the mercer lake dam in springfield yesterday. the dam is over 130 feet high. emergency responders said they had to stop and walk to the dam because snow was blocking the streets. they called a helicopter to take the little boy to the hospital where he was treated and released. and now to decision 2016. a live look at the white house this morning where within the next hour, bernie sanders will meet with president obama. the white house says they will meet privately in the oval office, but there is no formal agenda planned. this comes two days after president obama praised democratic frontrunner hillary clinton's bid for the presidency. in an interview with politico, the president has said he wouldn't endorse a candidate during the primary. now to the republican side of the race where there are hints that donald trump will announce another big endorsement as he throws another wrench into the republican machinery.
11:34 am

11:46 am

back to you, barbara. >> all right, adam. you're right about that. the cold and the snow, of course, are very hard on the roads, and you can expect the temperatures to drop tonight, which means an icy commute in the morning. lauryn, just how cold is it going to get? >> we're talking about teens and 20s, so well below that freezing mark, pat, and temperatures right now above that freezing mark. that's why we're seeing some melting, plus we got the added sunshine. i just saw adam's live shot. you can see those wet roadways out there. but that's all going to freeze overnight. so temperature at 37 degrees. we're going to stay there and at about 3:00, that temperature will go down a little bit. eventually we'll be in the low 30s about 5:00 or 6:00 and start to see freezing spots about 7:00 tonight. we'll have mostly clear skies overnight so it will be a messy commute. we had one lane pretty much all throughout d.c. a lot of slush out there. then this evening, after about
