and mild and partly sunny. should be a good complete, but it's heading back home tomorrow afternoon that storms are looking likely. temperatures will be in the mid-80s and a steamy afternoon. some of those storms tomorrow afternoon and early evening could be severe with damaging winds. storm team 4 four day forecast, a smaller chance of any storms around on tuesday. otherwise a lot of clouds tuesday. kind of a hot day, up near 90 degrees and still rather humid. but a smaller chance of afternoon storms. then wednesday, low humidity returns. here it comes again. afternoon highs in the low 80s. still pleasant thursday and friday. highs in the mid-80s. saturday, as we get into the fourth of july weekend, it does look like there will be showers and storms around, temperatures in the mid-80s. extended outlook for the rest of your fourth of july weekend, next sunday partly sunny, mid-80s. and fourth of july on monday, into the mid-80s and partly cloudy. so looks like good day for fireworks as the big fireworks display will

so generally fairly pleasant after a few storms tomorrow and tuesday. next up is "reporter's notebook." >> we'll be back in 15 minutes with more on your morning's top stories. good morning. welcome to reporter's notebook oig. i'm pat lawson muse. water worries at d.c. schools, libraries apand rec centers. city is installing new filler, but a lot of parents aren't happy with the way that the problem is being handled. tom sherwood and aaron gilchrist are with us this morning. where are they found lead sf. >> the city has been testing for lead in all the schools thousand once a year for some time. there was serious lead in the water problem several years ago foe and they have found too many schools. complaints this week when there was a hearing at the council for parents and other community activists was that the city is not telling the parents fast enough when they do in fact find lead. mayo

announced on the eve of this hearing that they would start testing now one part per billion. the federal standard is closer to like 15 parts per billion and shf the schools and libraries were over that. so the mayor says they will be much aggressive about, a, finding the water sources, filtering, and alerting parents. >> d.c.ter crisis in the early 2000s. do you find it surprising that we're dealing with this today and especially in light of flint? >> and i think that's one of the things that why this resonated with a lot of people because there was a group of students from da.c. to went to volunteer in flint and they come home and find out there is an issue with their school. so i think you can ask questions about how serious an issue it is

, whether it's really a bona fide health concern, but the fact that the information wasn't being pushed out has parents tensed up. >> and the experts tell us that lead can cause behavioral problems for children, it can cause rashes, it can cause brain damage depending on the severity. and the younger you are and the more you're exposed to it, the more danger there is for you. and that's why the deputy mayor for public safety told me this week, kevin donahue, said that the city will be much aggressive in finding the slightest particle of lead. i would say david grasso and mary cheh were upset saying take they are not confident the city is doing a good enough job let alone telling people about it and that's why they had the hear to go get the city to push hard to get the problem. one week into phase two of safetrack and while it hasn't been a ride in the park, it was certainly inconvenient for a lot of riders. but

better than many anticipateded. >> we've had a lot of our reporters out on the safetrack story, different parts in the day, and there was a concern going on, oh, my god, they're going to shut down these parts of metro and it will be catastrophic and that has not been the case. it's been annoying, but it hasn't been a catastrophe as some people had indicated it might be. >> traffic-of 25,000 people in prince george's county who depend upon the metro system that had to find other places to work. they are leaving earlier. just because it's going better than people thought it would, that does not mean that the aggravation level -- it's very serious for the people affected by this and of course later in the week metro had nothing -- the shutdown, but all the water that cascaded into the cleveland park. it's like metro can't win a break. >> but are people used to these issues

really just not as much of a big daily as some people might think? >> i think people are using waze, which is app. >> we all use it. many of us. >> and it is significant. metro has to prove that it's useful. a lot of people, the fear is that if they go back to their cars to get to work or to drive around, that they will never go back to metro. if they don't go back to metro, metro is losing ridership. not just temporarily. and they have to stem that. >> a lot of folks who use their cars also use the memorial bridge which we know is crumbling. there is a tour with local officials this week. this is the worst federal bridge in the country. is the bridge going to be closed. >> >> federal highway administration, mayor bowser, tim kaine, senator from virginia and mark warner went under the bridge this past week and they said the federal government has

$250 million to fix the memorial bridge. 68,000 vehicles every day cross that bridge. and if it's not done, and it's owned by the park service, if nothing is done or too little is done, they will have to close it all together and that would be a catastrophic nightmare for traffic in this region. >> there are already no buses using it. >> last year, anything over 10,000 pounds can't go on this bridge. it happens to be my favorite bridge in the city, but it's not safe for major traffic. >> we talk about from a government perspective about what it will cost and how lawmakers are saying we need do this. i use that bridge. high barber shop is in alexandria. i use the bridge it on go from here to there. and when they closed the two outside lines for a couple months, you saw more and more cars trying to dodge each other in the middle of the day even. it was a huge inconvenience and i think

it will be a real problem for folks. >> the overall picture is we have an infrastructure problem with metro, bridges, roadways in prince george's county, montgomery, alexandria, arlington, fairfax, all these places across the country we have a huge infrastructure problem. and we'll grow fast in the city, the suburb. how are people going to get around. that is the fundamental issue. >> good question. we have to take a break. we'll be right back.

will maryland be able to toughen gun laws in the wake of the orlando massacre? some say that massacre provided new momentum. what do you think, aaron? >> the direct question, yeah, in a few places in maryland in particular there is now a push to try to get momentum going again on trying to go make some restrictions happen as it relates to the no-fly list and people who are on that liot

you have to wonder if it gets traction and they're able to get something passed in the maryland legislatu legislature, does that change any of the federal laws. we saw this week where democrats in the house staged a sit-in and it still raises the question of whether anything would actually be done to change any of the laws. i spent a few days in orlando after the shooting and it wasn't a big part of the conversation among people would live in in that city because obviously there was so many pain for those folks to deal with, but something in the back of a lot of people's minds as they started to think about what they were going through and how could this happen. that's the question that they asked. same question that was asked in connecticut and so many other places around the country. >> out of that massacre and the continuing shootings just in day it day crime, democrats in the senate it get a vote on four gun measures. they were all defeated. they want to use that in the general election this fall. house democrats were doing the same thing. they had

sit-down in the well of the house and they will do more and they will keep that up. because they also believe that, a, we need to get a vote on bills, or, b, at least embarrass republicans in the coming election. >> i'll tell you, pat, i was this blacksburg after the shooting at virginia tech. and i remember seeing people looking blank. there was this vacancy in people's eyes because there was so much shock. here we are almost ten years later and people are not as shocked anymore that these things happen because we've had so many incidents with so many people having been shot, but there is still this intense pain that you see from folks who are -- we saw people literally trying to hold each other up crying thinking about what had happened, looking at pictures of some of the memorials set up around town. and i think that was one of the overwhelming things that we saw down there. and then on the other side, as we've seen so many times before, this intense desire/need to help, people wanting

donate money or volunteer time in some way. those are the two big things that we saw. >> and often after a horrific e like this or sandy hook or blacks about your, they give their thoughts and prayers to the victims and families, but what we're seeing now is more anger. there is always anger after some of these, but in the last weeks of orlando, i thought i heard more anger that we can't keep having thoughts and prayers without action. so that's what it will be the political battle going forward. >> in fairfax county, police chief is ready to start testing body cameras in the field. and there was the push after the death of john gear in 012013. but the county board wants to cl delay implementation 18 months. what's the story there? >> it's not a new system. d.c. is getting

other counties and states are doing it. and the police chief thought he was going to go ahead and the county said we want to study it more. there are serious issues. like this video that the police have, whether it will be made public is a serious issue. if you are a domestic violence victim and you've been beaten up and children are crying and screaming, police officer comes to your house, should that video add to the trauma of being a domestic violence victim, should that publicly be there, you screaming and yelling and crying and trying to protect your children? it's police video. some people say why not. that's what the police do, you should see it. >> i can't help but think -- we're not reinventsiprevenreinvl on this. other counties do it. >> and it protects what the police do. i didn't abuse that

>> there is accountability. police officers feel like that piece is in place. and then people in the public feel like because there is a camera, then it protects me more from anything that a bad cop might be inclined it do. >> and somebody be is tempted to act out against a police officer knows i'm con camera, better smile. >> so why not get it going where the police chiefs want to do it. how much more study is enough. >> don't wait 18 months to decide whether to do this. cameras will be out of date, you'll have to buy new ones. >> tom, you returned from the d.c. democratic unity breakfast. mayor bowser and strip septemvi were both there. did they shake hands? >> i did not see them. i even asked my cameraman, and we couldn't see them. it was a very volatile race.

she could to to help him. she congratulated all the people who won. there were four council races that were at stake. three of the supporters of mayor bowser lost, so this is seen as a big political setback for her. but she mentioned gray and robert white and trayon white. but she -- i didn't see them shake hands. two years ago when bowser beat gray for mayor, gray was leaving without shaking her hand, reporters handed him, so he went back in and shook her hand. but the mayor needs to reis the her politics with the new council members. >> and aaron, you're working on a story about a possible memorial to desert storm war vets. >> they have done quite a bit of the pre-work to get a memorial built. they have gotten congressional and presidential approval to build

who died in operation desert storm back in 1991 and they want to build a memorial to pay tribute to them, put it on the national mall next to the lincoln memorial just above the vietnam memorial. and they make the point that the leaders of desert storm were the soldiers and others in the vietnam war. and so to have a war that was so successful, they want to be able to pay contribute to those people. >> but there is a real concern by the various federal agencies that the mall is too crowded and that you don't want to keep adding things around the lincoln memorial or the lincoln memorial won't stand asthma jess particulartic majestically as it does. there a real concern that there is more spacesjess majestically as it does. there a real concern that there is more spaces than just right there. >> tom, aaron, thank you, gentlemen. that is "reporter's notebook."

you sat down with tim kaine this week. does contakaine have a shot wit hillary? >> he is the person as one close person said if you put a checklist down, he would check more boxes than any other candidate from a swing state. been a governor and senator. nobody else on that list. gets along with every. has a reputation for being a loyal number two. he has been a number two before which he pointed out to me, sort of talking about his strengths at being a number two since he was lieutenant governor of virginia. so the one knock against him, the idea that he's kind of boring. kind of milquetoast. which you'll enjoy in the interview is something also that comes up. he tries to take it with a sense of humor, but that seems to be the biggest knock against him. on day one, it won't create some

but is that what you're looking for or a governing partner. sarah palin was exciting for the first couple of days and how did that play. >> and what about donald trump? >> trump, part of his problem is that some people's identified have pulled out. they didnon't want to be involv. he continues to go back to the idea, what i've been told, it has to be a conservative. he already has problems with with some in the party that would like to get rid of him. and he apparently has imnatured t eliminated the idea of a minority or woman because they call that pandering. so i guess he will end up with a guy like chris christie. because ultimately donald trump -- loyalty matters probably more than anything else. >> and what about the george will issue -- >> it is interesting, all this week you had george
