>> the politics is going to be very tough. he said keeping the prison open is quote contrary to our values and undermines our standing in the world. there used to be 800 detainees at guantanamo, today fewer than 100. and the president's proposal would involve transferring between 30 and 60 of them to facilities here in the united states. there are about 13 possible locations where the plan doesn't specify a preferred site. mr. obama's plan would accelerate the review process to determine whether a detainee still poses a threat and if not whether they could be transferred. the president said closing the prison would save millions of dollars a year. >> this is about closing a chapter in our history. the defense department estimates this plan compared to keeping guantanamo open would lower costs by up to $85 million a year. >> given the stakes involved for our security, this plan deserve

even in an election year. >> one of the main battles is going to be with congress, which has repeatedly passed legislation banning any effort to bring detainees here to the united states. in fact republican leaders in both chambers have already criticized this plan. and some of the presidential candidates as well. including senator ted cruz, who says he would actually add more detainees to guantanamo. jim? >> chris lawrence, thank you. well cubans have some strong thoughts on the future of guantanamo bay. and what should be done with it news4's david culver is in ralph na this week. the only local tv reporter with a delegation visiting havana. he joins us live with reaction to the president's plan. big news there today, david? >> it sure is jim. we were live this morning on news4 today, we were doing a live interview. shortly after, the white house put out the announcement that the president was going to be unveiling his plan for guantanamo. immediately i can tell you that the news started to spreade

what exactly was going to take place. it was interesting to me in havana, how important and significant guantanamo bay is. when you think about it geographically, even though it's several hundred miles from where we are here in havana. it's very personal for a lot. cubans in that they the u.s. has occupied that for so long. and i was speaking with one former cuban diplomat who said when it comes to the demands the cuban government has with these new relations, first it's to bring down the embargo. they say second, it's guantanamo bay. that tells you how highly it's placed in their minds. despite what the president said today, the former cuban diplomat i spoke with said he doesn't really believe lawmakers will act on it. >> we appreciate what he has done. up until now. and we think it has been more, he has taken a lot of courage. but at the same time there's several things that have, still have to be done. cuba cannot exp

americans can not travel to cuba. so many issues. >> as we mentioned, we are here with the delegation from d.c., maryland and virginia. they are here obviously on the exploratory mission as the news came down as we were traveling here with them. we're going to bring you more coming up on news4 at 5:00, 5:30 in particular, about what the delegation has planned from here. we can tell you mayor muriel bowser is on a plane headed back to you in d.c. we'll bring you up to speed as to what's going on with the mission here in cuba. but for now, back to you. >> very good timing, lots going on. david culver, our man in havana. a campus wide alert at the university of maryland college park, students warmed about an armed robbery that occurred inside a dorm. learn how the gunman may have gained access to a secured building. he is or should i say was,

ted cruz is second with marco rubio behind him. john kasich, ben carson have five and three delegates respectively. for the gop it's all about nevada tonight where 30 delegates are at play. and saturday, it will be the democrats' turn in south carolina. clinton is heavily favored in that state. we have got super tuesday coming up with more than 1,000 democratic delegates and nearly 600 republican ones up for grabs. that blue state, that's those are the democratic, that's the democratic contest. and the red is the gop. and the yellow have both, and that includes the old virginia. >> despite recent attacks from maryland delegates, governor larry hogan is more popular than ever with voters. about 63% of marylanders approve of his performance. up 5% since october. 86% of republicans

the forecast, the nasty one over the next 24-30 hours across our region. a very dreary day today. a very cool day. a nasty day today, too. take a look outside. this picture kind of says it all. this is exactly what we've been dealing with today. the drizzle, fog, cool temperatures. yeah, just nasty for sure. look at the current temperature, only 43 degrees, winds out of the north at 13 miles per hour. so wind chills are in the 30s.

umbrellas, the rain boots and the coats today. look at the temperatures to north and west. only in the 30s, 37 frederick, 36 martinsburg. our friends in pennsylvania, franklin and fulton county, under a freezing rain advisory. temperatures in the valleys are near freezing. we won't see temperatures fall much at all overnight tonight. as a matter of fact tomorrow morning they're going to rise, and they're going to rise fairly quickly during the afternoon tomorrow. right now you see the shower activity. it's light in nature. the radar has a very hard time picking up the drizzle on the radar. we have a lot of that. there goes the first wave of moisture, the one that gave us a lot of rain, upwards of a half-inch of rain. now we're going to get a lull. it will be drizzle and light rain. we'll get in on the action again. look at the action occurring down here towards dallas. down towards new orleans. severe weather multiple tornados have been reported today. that's lot of damage i'm seeing out there on twitter. right now a lot of damage coming through parts of louisiana. parts of mississippi

only going to translate east as we move through the next 24 hours and eventually it will move our way. and we have a chance for some severe weather, too. future weather timing it out, tomorrow just the shower activity early. here's 9:00 a.m. most areas getting back in on the shower activity. most everything before say 1:00, 2:00, should be fairly light. you can see the light to moderate showers. stet steddy rain around 11:00. 1:00, we're seeing areas of rain. this is when the warm air starts to move in and then watch what happens around 4:00. we get some enhancement here, yellow, oranges, reds. that's going to be the chance for some severe weather during the afternoon into the evening hours tomorrow. and that's something we're going to watch closely. here at news4, that's why tomorrow's weather alert day. today notice the area in red here. this is a very big risk as far as severe weather is concerned across our region. for us we don't have any reds here, we the yellow up into southern maryland, down around fredericksbur

thunderstorms. the green marginal risk. fast-moving rain and thunderstorms, the biggest threats from those will be wind and rain. high winds and flooding potential is there. we have a flood watch in effect. but also tornado risk. it's low, but it's a lot higher than it normally is with storms like this. especially this time of year so that's something we'll be watching for, too. there's the weather alert day, thursday, 51, falling temperatures and wind during the day thursday and a cold friday. high temperature 39, wind chills in the 20s all day. so a little bit of a roller coaster the next few days. >> certainly sounds like it. thank you, doug. if a boxing glove could talk. this one would have a lot to say. one of the many artifacts that will be at the african-american history museum and barbara harrison has the story of the confident and cocky cassius clay. plus nationwide protests today just getting under way at apple stores and here at the fbi headquarters. why

(elephant sound) (donkey sound) when it comes to social security, we need more than lip service. our next president needs a real plan to keep social security strong. (elephant noise) hey candidates. enough talk. give us a plan.

just into the live desk, justice antonin scalia's doctor just released a letter that lays

likely contributed to his death. the letter says scalia suffered from coronary artery disease. obesity and diabetes among other things. a texas prosecutor says that long list of health problems made an autopsy unnecessary and helped him determine that justice scalia's death was not suspicious. scalia died earlier this month at a ranch in texas. he was 79 years old. >> you're watching news4 at 5:00. it is supposed to be a place where college students can feel safe. >> but university of maryland is issuing new warnings this evening about dorm security after an armed robbery. news4's chris gordon is on the campus this evening speaking with students there. hey, chris. >> well good evening, you'll hear from the students in just a few moments, we're at the university of maryland, police headquarters on baltimore avenue to show you how close this brazen armed robbery was when it took place sunday night. righ

montgomery hall. two robbers armed with a gun broke in sunday night, robbing six students right there. >> a campus-wide email today is informing university of maryland students about the armed robbery that happened here inside montgomery hall. >> really scary situation, just that you think you can be in a really safe place like a dorm. >> it happened sunday night at about 8:15. a student answered a knock at the door of his suite. the male voice asked if the student knows somebody. campus police say the man then forced his way in, drew a gun and demanded any valuable property. >> at that point a second individual came in behind him. and then they subsequently ordered the residents to the ground, took whatever property that they were able to get and then fled the area. >> six students in the dorm suite were robbed. no one was hurt. this student also lives in montgomery hall. >> i didn't expect it to be the type of thing that would happen on this campus. this is aet

i'm quite concerned about it. because if they can come into that dorm, that means they can come in any dorm. >> students tell us, they entered their residence halls by swiping their security-coated i.d. cards, but often others follow them in. it's called tailgating. >> tailgating is is obviously something that is frowned upon, by people do it all the time, anyway. just to be nice. i guess now we have to be more careful about that. >> ahead, how the victims of this armed robbery, how the six students may have helped the gunman get away. that's the latest live at the university of maryland college park campus. wendy and jim, back to you. >> thank you. a michigan gun store owner says he got goosebumps when he learned about the suspect in saturday's kalamazoo shooting spree. that's because he says that suspect was in his store just hours before the first shots were fired. police are looking at these surveillance images now that

inside the store. the owner says he bought a jacket like this one. with a gun pocket. but did not buy a gun. dalton is charged with six counts of murder, police are still looking for a motive. okay. and right now, people are coming out across the country to protest against the fbi. and some of them are saying they're going to protest in front of the apple store in new york city. demonstrators are supporting apple, which will not help the investigators break into the phone of one of the san bernardino shooters. the fight between apple and the fbi has become a hot debate and we've been asking you whether you think the government should be able to break into those smartphones. here's a look at the results of a poll we have going on right now. so far most of you say yes, they should. as long as they have a warrant. you can continue to weigh in on the nbc washington facebook page. so we're now turning to nbc chief justice correspondent pete williams who

this to us when it first came out. most of the tech world in fact all of the tech world is supporting apple on this. bill gates has some nuanced support for the fbi on this. he says investigators are going after something very specific that it isn't just black and white. do these arguments have some merit. >> well what gates basically is pushing back a little bit. he was asked about this he didn't volunteer it. he was asked about it in interviews. what he says is he agrees with the fbi that this is sort of a good for one ticket only thing. tim cook from app headline said look if we have to do this this time. that in essence creates a master key that could unlock any iphone in the world and if it fell into the wrong hands that would be a very bad thing what gates says is no that doesn't seem to be the case. this seems to be more case by case. the fact is he's kind of breaking ranks with the silicon valley executives, because they've all been unified behind apple. gates who no longer

microsoft because microsoft is still in apple's corner, says as you say it's a little more nuanced but he's leaning a little more towards the fbi than many of the other people in silicon valley. >> the families of the victims of those shootings, they obviously are leaning, are in the fbi's camp. does that -- >> not all of them. some of them. >> does that have any -- any value for the fbi? >> well, the fbi is very happy to have them of course in that position. because it's saying in part it's doing this on their behalf. but the, their lawyer, they've hired a lawyer. some of the family members, victims and they'll be filing a friend of court brief probably later next month. when this finally gets another hearing in court. >> and how much longer is this going to play out do we think? >> well it just depends it could well go all the way to the supreme court. it could well be, it could well be a year. it seems quite clear that the fbi is not going to get into this phone any time soon. apple believes there is an

it shouldn't have to do this. that the government doesn't have the legal authority and it would break its promise with customers to protect privacy. the fbi says it's got a court order there shunts be any place that's beyond the reach6x of a legitimate court order. >> pete williams, thanks so much. you bet. making its way to vieira, florida, for spring training. >> ryan zimmerman talking for the first time about allegations he used performance-enhancing drugs. >> jason pugh was there while zimmerman addressed reporters, jason? >> wendy and jim, when you think about some of the more recognizable and influential athletes in our area at this time, ryan zimmerman's name has to be near the top of that list. that's why so many people were shocked when his name was associated with performance-enhancing drugs. well today here in vieira, florida, he came out and strongly denied

>> it's one of those things where you don't have an answer, you don't know why or how this happened. and then you turn from like being shocked to being angry. >> for the last 11 years, ryan zimmerman has been one of the biggest names in the nationals organization. this past off-season after being linked to performance-enhancing drugs by the al jazeera network, the first baseman is now trying to clear his name. >> i've never done any of that, i've never even thought of doing any of that. it's -- but yeah, it's -- a tough spot. you know you, you do everything the right way. you know, you work. you think something like this will never happen. and then for some reason it does. >> all we can do support him. you know, and just -- everything ends. it seems like an eternity in the end, but he'll get through it. he'll be stronger and better because of it. >> zimmer man has filed a

defamation suit against al jazeera, this is far from over. >> i think it's my responsibility, not only to clear my name. but if i do this and you know whether i win or lose on the defamation suit, even if it gets to a trial, i sort of felt a responsibility because i am able to fight it. that maybe it stops this from happening to one person after me. then it's worth it. >> now ryan zimmerman did say in that press conference, he doesn't know how long the process will be. he says the case could get thrown out before it ever goes to court. or it could go to court after the baseball season either way he is gearing up for a long battle with this. wendy, jim, back to you. >> jason, thanks so much. if the elections were held today in the district, the city would not be ready. why there's now a fight over preparations for the d.c. primary. >> but first, sexual transmission of the zika virus appear

as a women's agenda. more proof that we just need more women in congress. i'm kathleen mathews and i approve this message.

what a day today. but nothing compared to what we're going to see tomorrow. >> nothing like we're going to see tomorrow. it's been a while since we had severe thunderstorm warnings. think there's the potential for that tomorrow during this time. so get ready, plan accordingly. make sure you download the nbc washington app. make sure you watch at 11:00 for changes and then of course, chuck bell will be up early tomorrow morning starting at 4:30. first the flood watch that starts early tomorrow morning and runs until 1:00 a.m. thursday. look at that. all the green that you're seeing there, that is the flood watch. and it covers most of our area. as far as rainfall amounts, we picked up a half-inch today could get another one to two inches tomorrow. showers for the early part of the y.

we'll see the temperatures quickly rise. so big change in how it feels outside. and it's going to have the kind of feel with all the moisture in the air you just know something is about ready to happen. for the morning commute, yes, it will be slow because of the showers. and the fog. but again nothing like the afternoon or evening commute. we've got red on the board all the way through. exercising i would stay inside or try to do it during the early part of the day. and then the chance for the severe thunderstorms during the afternoon hours. the big change you'll notice is when the winds start to pick up. that's our first chance of seeing the severe thunderstorms move in that's afternoon and around 2:00 tomorrow. we'll be around 55, maybe 60 degrees, because there's some indication there could be some locations around the area maybe that hit a high of 66 or even 67 degrees. rainfall amounts, into pax river, annapolis, easton, cambridge area. one to two coming in. on top of the rain we've already gotten that

so streams, creeks, all could be out of their banks during the latter part of the day tomorrow. >> here's a look at the day planner. you can see the rain, thunderstorms coming through our area. temperatures again, rising up until the weather front comes through. even at 8:00 tomorrow evening. 62 degrees your temperature and still going up. until the weather front moves through. when it does, temperatures will start coming down on thursday. so the worst weather for us tomorrow is between 3:00 and 10:00 p.m. heavy rain, high winds coming through the area, that's the reason why it's a weather alert day throughout the entire day tomorrow. here's a look at the four-day forecast. 62 the high on wednesday, 51 and potentially falling throughout the day on thursday, we're partly sunny, windy, with wind chills on thursday in the 30s and then 40s and wind chills in the 20s on friday. because it's still going to be windy. so we've got the cold weather to deal with for the end of the week. ed weekend getting a little better. it will be mild and terrific on
