it's gorgeous out there. barely a cloud in the sky. humidity levels in check as well. as we move into the overnight hours clouds move in and humidity increases. by 8:00 the temperature around 84 degrees and 10:00 p.m. comfortable if you're going to be out. 81, but still too mild to open up those windows and get some fresh air in. here is the latest check of radar. i'm tracking this rain moving into the area and maybe a shower around tomorrow morning. notice some starting at 8:00 a.m. mostly cloudy skies already to start sunday. by 10:00 a.m. there's that isolated shower chance up around baltimore. as we move toward the mid day hours mostly cloudy skies. 3:30 we're starting to track rain across the area. if you're in montgomery, prince george, howard, fairfax, just about everybody seeing rain. notice the brighter colors right

heavier rain and gusty winds. heavy rain moving through the beltway and then it quickly moves out pushing off to the east. maybe some late day sunshine and tomorrow as we close out our weekend, 8:00 p.m., notice the clouds are starting to diminish and sunset is around 8:00. i'm not seeing a huge threat for severe weather tomorrow. . i'll be here keeping you up to date with the latest. if we see anything it would mainly be heavy rain that would lead to flash flooding especially in areas like the city where it's hard to get the water off the roads quickly and a fewong str wind gusts may be producing some isolated wind damage. your hourly planner, we start off at 76 and a high of 88. the rain quickly moves out and for sunday again know that you will be dealing with some rain especially during the afternoon hours, that timing on future weather is especially between 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. and after that 's

days. because of the timing of the rain tomorrow it's a weather alert day. monday we start off in the 60s. 85 for a high, nice breeze. we stay in the 80s for the majority of the upcoming work week. >> are we talking about as heavy as we saw last week for the rain. >> it will be as heavy as last week but it will move through quickly. i'll have updates throughout the afternoon. coming up in sports the redskins rally the burgundy in gold late last night. highl

marcopolo! marco...! polo! marco...! polo! marco...! polo! marco...! sì? polo! marco...! polo! scusa? ma io sono marco polo, ma... marco...! playing "marco polo" with marco polo? surprising. ragazzini, io sono marco polo. sì, sono qui... what's not surprising? how much money amanda and keith saved by switching to geico. ahhh... polo. marco...! polo! fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more. polo!

the redskins sure pulled a late fast one on the jets on friday night. eight stars were scratched at the last minute. some of those names included josh norman, and jordan reed. curt cousins was a healthy spectat spectator. that was good news for colt mccoy. the second one comes in the second quarter. 39 yard strike and the skins up 14 in the half. late in the

ahead. how about this drive from third stringer. he played 84 yard and ends with this 18 yard touchdown. run that play back. nice one handed concentration. redskins win 22-18. their preseason record is 1-1. >> i was waiting to hear cheers because my vision i couldn't see the exchange, the catch or whatever. i was hoping to hear some cheers and not some boos or whatever so i was hoping there was a touchdown and there was. >> i feel good and more importantly i like the way we executed as a whole as a unit that last drive. we made some good third down conversions and i felt like we drove home what we had to do. >> that's the good from friday. here is the bad. starting running back matt jones sprained the ac joint in his shoulder. it's too soon to determine how long he'll be out. the redskins run game struggled in the preseason. washington needs to add depth on the the

healthy jones on the field. >> it's a little bruised up. somebody landed on my shoulder and i was going down on my shoulder anyway but somebody landed on it and it got a bruise but they're still taking a look at it. when i went down on it, on a scale of one to 10 it was a seven and then i went up and then i went down so i still got some flexibility in it so it's not as bad as it was. >> don't run on the buffalo, the braves learned that lesson the hard way. last night ramos caught two base runners stealing in the national 7-6 win over the braves. no other catcher has ever accomplished that feat. they were able to get to a season high with friday's night win. you already know about ramos, how about ben showing after the mad hot. the home run

in the off season. glad to have him around. robb there has been some doubtful moments for the usa men's basketball team but that's not the case for the women. they won gold today in rio and have been dominant from start to finish. this is how they won gold. not a great start. spain is hanging around. here's another former yucken husky. they pulled away in the second half. that's getting it done.

get those hands up for the gold. john walsh still rehabbing and the star is still active in the community. today he was at an elementary school in the district and he spent the day encouraging youngsters to get a good education. this year's recipient of the cares award. he was thankful for the assist he received from the volunteers. >> without them it wouldn't be a foundation. it wouldn't be me wanting to give back to less fortunate kids and mentor kids. without those this couldn't be a block party, couldn't have these other things. we wouldn't be able to do that without these people. they took time out of their day to come here and help me and that makes the block party and back to school year more important to me. i want to thank those guys for being here. local athlete to keep an e

is matt from maryland. he's running from the men's 1,500 meter final in track and field. as always an exciting night in the olympics. see you back here for the action. >> see you then. thank you. we'll be talking about this later tonight after the olympics but have the umbrellas ready for tomorrow. >> i'll be dealing with some rain. it's not going to a rainy day. >> that's why we will be weather alert for tomorrow. >> nightly news is coming up next and we will see you again after the olympics. od night esh.go
